Minca trekking reveals a world where indigenous history comes to life. Through trails covered with native vegetation, the roots of the Kogui, Wiwa, Arhuacos and Kankuamos peoples that have preserved their connection to nature are explored. The route includes a visit to a coffee and cocoa farm run by an Arhuaca family, where you will learn about its relationship with the land and the cultivation processes. At the end, a refreshing waterfall awaits you to enjoy a well-deserved rest, symbolizing the union between the natural environment and the cultural identity of the region.
Out at sunset: the 2:30 PM departure is under way when the sun sets, around 5:36 PM in the coming weeks.

We begin with the meeting in the central park of Minca, where the guide introduces the history of the territory, its sacred geography and the ancestral presence of the Arahuacos peoples. From there we begin a quiet walk to the Heard of the World waterfall, a place of natural connection where the spiritual value of water in the Sierra Nevada is explained. We continue to a farm of indigenous Arahuaca community, where the hosts share their relationship with the territory and its traditions. We participate in a cocoa and coffee workshop to understand their artisanal processes and their cultural importance. Then we explore backpack weaving techniques and other everyday knowledge handed down from generations. We finish with a tasting of coffee and cocoa prepared on site, celebrating the memory, flavors and indigenous knowledge that still lives in Minca
