Description

Trek to the Lost City of the Tayronas! It was missing for 100s of years before being rediscovered in 1972, only to endure decades of guerrilla warfare afterward.

Today, most anyone can attempt the hike. You should be prepared to tackle one of the most physically-difficult treks in the world, according to the local guides. The hike takes you through indigenous lands and rivers that can get dangerous during the wet season. The view from the top is more than worthwhile.
