Trekking to the Indigenous Village of Mutanzhy
The Mutanzhy Village is a Kogui indigenous community, which is currently enabled but with some restrictions, is mostly made up of indigenous people who have been culturally conserved due to location. It is located in the high mountains of The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta at 1,000 meters above sea level. Meet this magical town that has different mountain ecosystems and the most important thing that still preserves all its ancestral and cultural wealth and that allows its visitors to appreciate and know their way of life, their customs and rituals typical of a culture that has prevailed for more of a thousand years.
