Description
Only accessible by foot, the base camp is a 25 min hike from Minca, beautiful little town of international and colombian culture where you will find a true buena onda. Lively little town.
Our little piece of paradise is situated in the Sierra Nevada, a wild and powerful jungle of majestic trees, magical cacao, waterfalls, birds and snakes.
See below for the main goals of this season.

Accommodation
The accommodation is lovely but quite basic. There is no electricity or wifi, but there is phone service.
We have a beautiful fully functioning outdoor kitchen. Compost toilets. Shower with a view ;)
Good thing if you HAVE YOUR OWN TENT and stuff. But we do have some tents and small mattresses.
Also, we are 25 min hike from town, there is no road access. Having boots is a plus, there are snakes out there :) Don't be scared but be cautious.
$$$$$
Our work requirement is minimal, 2 hours per day, so we don´t provide food. So we share food costs.
We always end up making truly amazing food with what seems to cost very little.
If you are willing to work a full day, we will happily pay for you food ^^
What else ...
The most beautiful waterfalls in Minca are a short hike from our spot. And Minca is always there when we need to buy food, connect, party or simply change scenery.
