Colombia is a trekker’s paradise, with routes to be found through snow-capped mountains, Amazonian jungle, desert landscapes and places such as Cocora Valley, which has no parallel. One trek gaining increasing popularity is The Lost City (Ciudad Perdida), accessible from Santa Marta, Taganga and Tayrona National Park.
It’s little wonder the trek is so popular – it combines the spectacular end-point of the lost city (comparable to Machu Picchu) with indigenous tribes, amazing wildlife and an unforgettable trek.
