Overview

Paso del Mango is an ancient indigenous trail that borders the Manzanares River. It is an open natural space where we will interact with endangered species, and plant life.

We will have an experience designed around cocoa, where we will enjoy the different wells and waterfalls that the Sierra Nevada offers to us.

This trip is exclusive as there are not many operators on the area. That makes this experience unique, your eyes will never forget what they saw after you interacted with this magical place!

    Once we reach our first stop which is the start of the waterfall trail, we'll start hiking for about 3 hours stopping and enjoying each one of the falls. The trail is mildly difficult but we'll have amazing views of the valley once we reach the top of the mountain.

    Each one of the waterfalls is beautiful in its own way and since this area is not very well known, we'll be able to enjoy them by ourselves, making this the perfect adventure for people who want to connect with the jungle, nature, and themselves.
