DAY 1

We start from the center of Santa Marta at 8 AM, heading to the town of Guachaca, where at 9:30 AM we will begin our trek in direction of Gotsezhy Refuge walking on offroad trails and mountain paths; it will take us about 3 hours.

After a wholesome lunch prepared by the women of the community – based on visitors’ requirements and on the delicious indigenous gastronomy of this region-, we will have the opportunity to rest and visit the town of Gotsezhy, interacting with a part of the Wiwa Indigenous population who lives in this community. We will observe the school, a large number of traditional houses (indigenous huts) and other important sites of Gotsezhy village.

Then we will start a walk through paths replete with vegetation, in order to get to enjoy a refreshing bath in the ancestral Matuna waterfall.

After enjoying for more than an hour the crystal clear waters of the Matuna waterfall, we will return to the Refuge to share a moment with the families that live there, have dinner and prepare to rest.

DAY 2

The day begins by getting up early to have a delicious breakfast, so that with renewed energy we will visit some ancestral and cultural sites in the company of an indigenous guide, who will give us spiritual talks and teach us about traditional handicrafts and other forms of cultural and artistic expression typical of the Wiwas.

Around noon we will have lunch, a short time for resting and then get ready and start the trek down to Guachaca, where the car will be waiting to take us back to the city of Santa Marta; estimated arrival time is 5:30 PM.
