Overview

Three days to transform your understanding of the world. Bunkuany 3 days is not just archaeological trekking, it's complete immersion in Sierra Nevada cosmology.


The complete expedition accesses Tayrona ruins that few people reach. You'll trek 32 km in authentic mountain terrain. You'll visit stone terraces representing engineering without modern technology. But what's different in this version: you'll sleep in the Kogui village. You'll share space with a community that has guarded these sites for centuries. You'll learn worldview directly from their guides.


Day one: You'll ascend to Finca La Playita. Day two: You'll reach Bunkuany and descend 8.5 km to the Kogui community for the night. Day three: You'll breakfast on the mountain, see snow peaks at dawn, receive specialized cultural tour, return with different perspective.


Magic Tour has operated 20+ years as authorized operator in Sierra Nevada. We coordinate directly with Kogui communities. We work respecting sacred spaces. Thousands of travelers have lived this experience with certified safety and authenticity.


Three days you don't return the same. Your relationship with the mountain, history, time, everything changes
