Cuevas de Tenjo Hike

Join us as we enter the depths of the Earth on this hiking route through the Cuevas de Tenjo. We'll access these caves to learn their secrets and enjoy incredible views of the Bogotá savanna.

Description

At the designated time, we'll meet at your chosen pickup point and travel by minibus to the centre of Tenjo. Here, we'll embark on a 45-minute hike to the caves that define the interior of Colombia.

Throughout the ascent, we will observe the Bogotá savanna, cultivated fields, and possibly see various species of birds.

Next, we'll enter the Cuevas de Tenjo, descending 45 metres (147 Feet) below the surface using ropes. Lanterns will be lit for an explanation of the caves' formation and their historical uses. You'll have 10 minutes to explore inside before we return to the surface and visit a viewpoint with a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains.

We will then walk back to town and visit a hummingbird conservation centre, learning about these birds and taking a one-hour break to recharge.

Finally, we will return to the initial meeting point by minibus after an 8-hour tour.
