Description
Join a 3-day trek to the Lost City of Teyuna from Santa Marta. Hike through the Sierra Nevada, cross rivers, and climb ancient steps to reach the archaeological site with a local guide.
Embark on a 3-day trek to the Lost City of Teyuna, hidden in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. Designed for active travelers with limited time, this journey condenses the essence of the traditional hike into dynamic and intensive days.
Unlike mass tours, this experience operates in small groups to ensure a steady pace, close interaction with the environment, and personalized attention from your professional guide. Along the way, cross jungle valleys, skirt mountain rivers, and learn about the cultural and ecological significance of this sacred region.
During the trek, stay in camps equipped with beds or hammocks with mosquito nets and enjoy local meals prepared to keep your energy levels up.
