Getting camping gear

There is decent camping equipment for sale in Bogota, although you can perhaps find better quality at cheaper prices if you buy it before you leave in the USA or Europe. You could also try asking around at the hostels, maybe someone is selling something.

With the improved safety situation, camping is ok again in many places in Colombia. These are some places to buy camping gear in Bogota.
