episode description

In the middle of Colombia, lies an ancient, unique and little explored outcrop of sandstone; the Serrania de la Macarena. It forms part of the country's first ever national park - made up of lush jungle, shrubland and savannah, isolated peaks, winding rivers and spectacular waterfalls – where more than 15 million specimens were collected during early studies of the area. Called the ‘treasure of the world’, scientists believe it is a hugely important bank of biological diversity. This film explores how the wildlife and landscape of the Serrania de la Macarena has been uniquely shaped by the Andes, Orinoco basin and Amazon jungle which surround it and how, only now, scientists are beginning to uncover the treasures it hides.
