Context

The route to Teyuna, known as Ciudad Perdida, crosses rivers, jungle and steep elevation changes before reaching ancient paths and terraces built by the Tayrona civilization. The Sierra Nevada continues to be the home and ancestral territory of Indigenous peoples, so the hike is not just a physical challenge or an archaeological visit. It requires understanding that you are entering a living landscape with its own rules and meanings.

What can you do?

• Take a multi-day trek
• Walk through jungle and cross rivers depending on conditions
• Learn about the archaeological context with a guide
• Listen to guidance from communities and authorities
• Stay in authorized camps
