En el norte se encuentran dos grandes sierras, la de Santa Marta y la del Perijá, siendo la primera uno de los principales puntos calientes (hotsposts) del mundo para la observación de aves endémicas. En los últimos años, las rutas habituales para la observación de aves del país han ido evolucionando, focalizándose en las zonas protegidas tanto de propiedad privada como pública, permitiendo así la observación de casi todas las aves endémicas de Colombia, desde loros y colibríes con extravagantes plumajes hasta los furtivos gralláridos.
