Lost City Trekking in Colombia

The ancient archaeological site of Teyuna, or the Lost City, sits within the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta mountains and can only be reached by a guided multi-day trek. On this week-long walking trip, you’ll do just that, with knowledgeable local guides to guide the way into Tayrona National Natural Park. Starting in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Cartagena, you’ll jump straight into local Colombian culture, explore the scenic port city of Santa Marta and then begin your trek to the Lost City. Meet local Indigenous leaders, sleep in mountain campsites away from the hustle and bustle of modern life and spend four days in the mountains, hiking through rainforest and jungle to this sacred Colombian site – a perfect adventure for any avid adventurer, hiker and explorer!
