Sumapaz Mountaintop Páramo Trek - 3 hours
Experience this high-altitude ecosystem at 3800 meters of altitude filled with unique fauna and flora found nowhere else outside the Andes. A visit to a nature reserve in the Páramo of Sumapaz will make you feel like you have stepped onto another planet. This trek is of high difficulty. It requires that you are in good physical condition due to the low air pressure present above 3500 m.a.s.l. The trails are uneven, steep and muddy most of the time. The elevation gain for this trek is about 400 meters, starting at 3400 meters and reaching 3800 m.a.s.l. Keep in mind that each hour you spend hiking at high altitudes is the equivalent effort of two hours at sea level. Note: This is not a private tour but a GROUP tour and you COULD join other travelers at any moment during the tour
