Birding sites

Seven community birding hosts welcome visitors around the Topocoro reservoir, in three areas: La Playa, on the Sogamoso River; Panorama, next to the reservoir; and the Serranía de La Paz.

The project

Since 2023, five communities around the Topocoro reservoir have made birds the focus of conservation, development and local pride. The initiative began as an alliance between ISAGEN and Biótica Consultores, and today the communities themselves run it, having adapted and strengthened it.

The process has included birding training, preparing places to welcome visitors, participatory biodiversity monitoring, local research and the exchange of experiences.

Conservation works when it starts from the land itself: when communities lead, institutions support and knowledge becomes opportunity.
