El Rosal (Spanish pronunciation: [el roˈsal]) is a municipality and town of Colombia in the department of Cundinamarca.

A large percentage of this agricultural community is employed by large scale flower growers in the production of roses,carnations astromelias and other varieties of flowers. Other crops which contribute to the economy are potatoes, carrots, corn, sweetpeas, string beans and herbs. Wheat was a major crop until the 1930s when the price fell and made it economically unfeasible to continue planting it. Dairy farms, meat cattle, goats and horses are also vital parts of the El Rosal economy.
