if you come into town look out on the right for a sign "Colombia Highlands" & ask for Oscar. He has a very nice sight out of town where you can camp (only 10 min.to walk into town). He tells you about things to do around Villa Leyva.
If he is not there go straight to the Plaza, make a left, next right, go down the street, make a left,cross the bridge, make a right (right after the bridge on a dirt road), go up & you see on the left hand side a military post, go ahead for qabout 300m & make a right & go steep up(you see a white house)

when you get into town have a look down the 1. road on the left (you are on top of the hill). You see a sign "Valle Cocora". Go down the gravelroad, at the end you see on the left hand side 2 places to stay, take the second one & pitch up your tent (tey don't privide rooms). A very nice & relaxing place.
