Wow wow!!!’n what a beautiful Trek with waterfalls. Breathtaking views!! View of the Andes Mountains! Just beautiful. Easy to do Thank you to Caren and his dad for a beautiful day that I will never forget 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Good views and hike! John was our guide and was great! He was very knowledgeable and took care of us the whole way. The schedule was as described, we got to see how some of the locals make different textiles, do the hike, and stop for lunch on the way home. The hike is about 3 hours downhill, and it was helpful to have walking sticks (which were provided) if you find rocky terrain difficult. There was a combination of flat or rocky terrain, but a good portion of the hike is rocky, but not difficult.
John, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. This is a family business and everyone was very friendly. We got to meet his wonderful family and they showed us how they make ponchos, scarfs, and clothing, from the very beginning, which is the spinning and dying of the wool to the weaving of it, which a table runner can take up to a month to weave, due to the intricacies of it. Such a wonderful and enlightening experience.
