After being picked up from your accommodation, you will stroll through the cobblestone streets of the charming white-housed village of Guatavita.

Following this, you will be driven past potato fields and farmers’ homes to the highest point where the sacred lake is nestled among the mountains.

Within this natural reserve, adorned with lush and humid forest vegetation, you can sense the mystical energy that made this lake sacred to the Muiscas. Here, you will learn about the ancient Muiscas’ deep connection with nature and gain insight into the symbolism of the gold offerings that sparked the Spanish treasure hunters’ gold rush.
