We will leave from Bogotá to experience a weekend of adventure, nature, fresh air and wonderful landscapes. On this vibrant trip we will take two beautiful eco-tourist routes where we can live and enjoy magical natural attractions.

If you are passionate about waterfalls, you will undoubtedly fall in love with La Humeadora, two reddish waterfalls that when hitting the rocks raise a thick curtain of smoke from which its name derives. You will also be dazzled by the Manto de La Virgen, which with its masterful waterfall, is one of the most beautiful in Colombia.

Day 1

We will leave Bogotá heading to the Municipality of Gámbita in Santander. We will take the La Humeadora route, the tour begins at the main waterfall, where you can enjoy a wonderful natural environment, feel the force of the water and take photographs. Then we continue this journey towards the waterfall called La Bufalona, where we can walk behind this imposing waterfall! At the waterfall and Pozo La Vieja, depending on the flow of the river, we can swim in the well and jump from different heights, without a doubt a unique experience. At night we will be in a spectacular hotel where we can enjoy its facilities and pool.

Day 2

The second day we will go to the Manto de La Virgen, the tour will begin at the Divino Niño waterfall, there we will be able to enjoy its beauty and take the best memories in photographs. Afterwards, we will continue our way to the Arco Iris waterfall, a waterfall of approximately 80 meters where you can enjoy the rainbow that is formed in this beautiful waterfall. With this preamble, we will arrive at the Mantle of the Virgin. We will enjoy an excellent ecological trail, which during its ascent places us in the upper part of the casada, from where you can enjoy the exuberant beauty of this natural wonder. Afterwards we will find the perfect combination in the refreshing well located at the top of the waterfall, we will continue the journey along the edge of the mountain until we reach the canyon. Estimated arrival time is 1:00 p.m. to begin the return along the same path of arrival and we will enjoy a well-deserved lunch.

We will end the adventure to make our return trip to Bogotá.
