El Cocuy National Park 3-tägige Wanderung von Bogota

Very collaborative providers, both the agency and the hosting hotel & guides. We did the 5-day experience which includes a day of activation and a rest day at the end where you can visit local hot springs/pools. This was a very special experience. I had wanted to come to this area for a long time and feel like we received the red carpet treatment all around. I especially want to recognize the Caminante hotel/hostel, where we stayed and where our guides were sourced from. This is a family run business and the family are truly a special group. Doña Marta, and her sons Carlos, Ivan, and Jovani, were very personable, competent, and accommodating, holding our hands every step of the way. We were able to complete the three hikes, and were fortunate to have good weather during our stay here. Several things to keep in mind are that you’ll definitely want to acclimatize before going up into the park to explore the glaciers and lakes. This tour includes a first day of acclimatizing to a local peak near the town which has a mellow 4 mile hike. The 3 longer hikes are generally 8-10 miles round trip and take you up to around 15 to 16,000 feet above sea level. Also, in hiring the guides it meant that they took care of all the paperwork and permitting with the park. The guides are required by the park. With several of the other guests at the hotel our hosts were helpful in coordinating some TLC in terms of some of the ailments that came up for other guests, including typical travel bugs and exhaustion on the mountain. This is definitely a more strenuous experience and something that will interest people who love trekking and exploring off the beaten path places. On the trail you’ll definitely find others because they’re really only three trails open in the park and each day they allow between 80 and 140 people on the trail depending on which trail you pick. 95% of the travelers out there on the trail or Colombians who are incredibly friendly and upbeat. Also, you may want check out the AllTrails app about hikes in the Cocuy National Park where I’ve posted some more detailed information about each of the 3 trails/hikes featured on this tour.

Poco antes de cumplir años decidí que quería pasarlo en un nevado y por medio de Impulse elegí el Cocuy. Al llegar allá me recibió el guía de la empresa llamado Alfredo. Hicimos una caminata de 3 horas de aclimatación y al otro día subimos al nevado. Dejare unas fotos que hablan por si solas. Super recomendada la agencia y las personas con las que trabaja !
