This is what your adventure trip looks like

Enjoy an immersive experience in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, learn about permaculture, and spend time with the Arhuaco and Kogi indigenous communities.

Over the course of two days, you’ll explore self-sufficiency at the Selvatorium, learn about Arhuaco architecture, enjoy a swim in the river, and participate in workshops on traditional weaving and traditional medicine. The evening offers a special moment to listen to stories around the fire about the indigenous worldview. The experience is rounded off with a tubing trip down the Palomino River.
