Laguna De Sonso Reserva

Here are a few photos from a brief visit to Laguna De Sonso. This is a marsh habitat reserve along the Rio Cauca operated by the CVC. To get there from Cali, having just passed the glorieta at Media Canoa you make a sharp right immediately after crossing the Rio Cauca bridge. If you missed the turn you´d be in Buga in another ten minutes. My visit was brief because the river was way up and I could only walk along the levee road.
