Just off the main highway about 20km north of Mocoa, this narrow canyon feeding the Río Caqueta is lined with interesting rock formations and is surrounded by jungle. To reach the canyon, take any Pitalito-bound bus and ask to be let off at the bridge over the Río Caqueta. On the far side of the bridge there's a small path on the right-hand side leading down to the canyon.
