This place is known as Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. It is an extensive territory with a great biological and cultural diversity, which is protected under the system of Colombian National Natural Parks. In the highest part of the mountains is located the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta National Park and in in the lower part, on the shore, we can find the Tayrona National Park.

I’m grateful to the world for allowing me to go on this trip, to visit such a beautiful and especial place as Tayrona National Park. I’m grateful to our indigenous guide for teaching us about his culture, also I’m grateful to the mamo for the ritual he performed and to SAWA for organizing this kind of experiences.
