Itinerary Ciudad Perdida, the most famous trek in South America 5D/4N

  • Day 1

    Vuelo a Santa Marta (1h 30m aprox. desde Bogotá)

    (No incluido)

    Transporte terrestre hasta la vereda el Mamey

    Transporte desde tu alojamiento en Santa Marta (o el aeropuerto si acabas de llegar) hasta la vereda El Mamey para comenzar la subida a la mítica Ciudad Perdida.

    El Mamey - Campamento Adán

    Luego de un recargado almuerzo, iniciaremos nuestra subida al campamento Adán. La caminata será de unos 7,5 km, recorrido que puede durar aproximadamente 4 horas. A mitad de camino pararemos en el mirador de las tres cruces para recargar fuerzas con frutas. Al final llegaremos al campamento Adán para pasar la noche, pero no sin antes refrescarnos en sus piscinas naturales que nos ofrece la sierra.

  • Day 2

    Campamento Adán - Paraíso Teyuna

    Luego de desayunar, saldremos al día más desafiante de la aventura, en el que estaremos caminando un total de 8:30h. Dada la exigencia, nos daremos el lujo de parar a almorzar a las orillas del Río Buritaca en el campamento Wiwa, donde podremos refrescarnos para seguir la caminata. Luego de bordear la comunidad Kogui Mutanyi, llegaremos a nuestro campamento, Paraíso Teyuna para pasar la noche

  • Day 3

    Paraíso Teyuna - Ciudad Perdida - Campamento Wiwa

    Con el amanecer como alarma, saldremos en una breve caminata de 2km para encontrarnos con los 1200 imponentes escalones para llegar a la Ciudad Perdida, redescubierta en 1973 por los arqueólogos Gilberto Cadavid y Luisa Fernanda Herrera. Al llegar, veremos las mismas terrazas sobre las cuales los Tairona edificaron una de sus ciudades en el siglo VIII. Luego de recorrer la historia de las terrazas, recibir la energía del lugar, y disfrutar del paisaje montañoso, bajaremos nuevamente hasta llegar al campamento Wiwa, donde almorzamos en el día 2, para pasar la noche.

  • Day 4

    Wiwa Camp - Waterfalls Camp

    After a delicious breakfast, embark on an exciting walk back to Camp Wiwa, crossing the Buritaca River by cart. Visit the impressive Pablo, El Abanico and Tina waterfalls, and enjoy lunch at Campamento de las Cascadas.
    In the afternoon, immerse yourself in local culture and learn about the region's typical crops, such as cassava, taro, and banana.

  • Day 5

    Cascadas Camp – El Mamey – return to city of origin

    Recorriendo el mismo sendero que alguna vez vimos hacia arriba con motivación, ahora lo bajaremos con satisfacción, mientras llegamos al campamento Adán para tomar un breve descanso de hidratación y frutas. Una vez recargados, volveremos a la vereda del Mamey para subirnos en una camioneta que nos llevará de vuelta a Santa Marta.

    Regreso a Ciudad de Origen
