Auswärtiges Amt mit Teilreisewarnung für Urlaubsparadies – massive Überschwemmungen und Erdrutsche 21.02.2026

The German Federal Foreign Office has issued a partial travel warning for northern Colombia due to severe flooding and landslides, primarily affecting the Córdoba department. Heavy rainfall, triggered by a cold front, has disrupted transportation and power supply, leading to significant infrastructure limitations. The Federal Foreign Office updated its travel and security advice on February 20, 2026, urging travelers to heed warnings from the Colombian disaster management authority, UNGRD, and local officials. The UNGRD is actively coordinating reconstruction efforts and plans to establish emergency kitchens in affected areas, mirroring successful initiatives in Cundinamarca. This event's occurrence outside the typical rainy season highlights its severity, underscoring Colombia's vulnerability to extreme weather events.
