Tour to the Kogui Mulkwakungui Community | Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta
Connect with ancestral wisdom in the heart of the Sierra Nevada
Connect with ancestral wisdom in the heart of the Sierra Nevada
From Santa Marta, the journey ventures into the Sierra Nevada, one of Colombia's most important natural and spiritual territories. As the landscape transforms into mountains, lush vegetation, and rural roads, a profound connection with the Kogui culture begins—one of the ancestral indigenous communities inhabiting this sacred land.
During the visit, you will be welcomed by members of the community, who will share their worldview, customs, and relationship with nature. The experience allows you to understand how the Sierra Nevada is considered the heart of the world and how every element of the environment holds spiritual significance within their cosmovision.
The tour includes spaces for cultural exchange within traditional buildings, as well as activities linked to their ancestral practices, such as the harvesting of coca leaves and the explanation of symbolic elements like the poporo. Each encounter is guided with respect and the intention of fostering an authentic connection to the memory and wisdom of the Kogui people.
One of the most significant moments of the experience is the spiritual ceremony led by a Kogui guide, where you will reflect on caring for nature and the balance between humankind and the land. As part of this experience, you will also participate in planting a tree, leaving a symbolic mark on the Sierra Nevada and contributing to environmental conservation.
More than a tourist route, Mulkwakungui is a learning and contemplation experience that invites you to understand the territory from the perspective of those who have protected it ancestrally.
