Tour description

The Guatapuri River is one of the 36 main rivers of Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, it passes through Valledupar and its Guardians are the IJKU or Arhuacos community.

In this experience we will enjoy walking through the nature of the Guatapuri River. We will start at El Puente Hurtado, where you will know the reason for its name and the legend of the Vallenata mermaid. We will continue downstream towards the Gazebo of Los Juglares, visiting its monuments and knowing its stories. We will also visit the Province Park, and we will continue downstream to Maravilla Beach, where we will have the opportunity to observe the fauna and flora of the tropical dry forest, until we reach the cool waters of the Guatapuri River, where you can enjoy a refreshing swim.

If travelers like it, they can enjoy massages, meals, drinks and vallenato music groups, which are not included in the tour.
