-
"Easy" Trek
During this trek, the climb is not very steep. Moreover, the mules are in charge of carrying food and water. And you will sleep in camp beds. It is an accessible experience for many travelers.
Experiences for the Lost City
The trek of the Ciudad Perdida can be done in 3, 4, 5 or 6 days. There are daily group departures, between 5 and 20 people. The 3 or 6-day treks are only possible in private tours.
-
Choose your date
Contact Fanny’s agency to reserve your date. I advise you to arrive in Santa Marta at least the day before.
-
Departure day
They pick you up at your hotel or you come directly to the agency. You can leave your stuff there.
-
Hiking
Every day, you walk between 5 and 7 hours (on average 15 km). The trail is easy to walk. However, it can be slippery because of the rain.
-
Viewpoints
The vegetation is dense in the Sierra Nevada. There are few beautiful viewpoints on the way. You will have to wait until you reach the Lost City.
-
Archaeological site
The Lost City was destroyed by grave robbers. The terraces were rebuilt identically. It is the mystical energy of the site and the view on the Sierra Nevada that I liked.
-
Campsites
The camps are well organized. There are beds with mosquito nets and even showers!
-
Indigenous Culture
During the trek, you will have the opportunity to pass by a Kogi village and learn more about their lifestyle.
Ciudad Perdida’s prices
The 5 official agencies of La Ciudad Perdida sell the tours at the same price. It's mandatory to book through a travel agency. The 4-day trek is the most common. This is the one I recommend. The 3 or 6-day treks are only for private tours.
-
4 - 5 days
Group tour
There are usually daily departures. It is best to book a few days in advance.

Fanny’s agency reviews
-
The lost city track was amazing. I never tracked before, this was my first one. For me, it was very challenging but I’m really glad I did it. I really recommend Elberth and Eberth the guides from Fanny's agency. They are great guides and great people. They gave us the best experience.

They are the best. I did the lost city trek with them in five days. The transportation was excellent, the office excellent attention, my guide was a man nicknamed " Marrón" totally grateful for his teachings, patience, help, encouragement, and security on the trip. They give excellent food, on the hike and in the meals of the day, the portion is large and very tasty. For foreigners they have a translator. And the lodging is very comfortable.
