Guachucal + La Cumbal Lagoon Hiking Tour

At 6 am, we'll meet at the monument to Antonio Nariño in the square of the same name. From there, we will travel to the municipality of Guachucal, located in the south of the department of Nariño.

Upon arrival, we'll take an ancient path used by the indigenous people to travel to the La Bolsa lagoon, a location representing spiritual strength. This path runs through the pastures on the slopes of the Cumbal volcano and borders the Los Capotes Nature Reserve.

The walk lasts about four hours and is of medium-low difficulty. During the journey, we'll share legends surrounding the Cumbal volcano and discuss how the inhabitants of Guachucal protect their natural environment. This experience aims to foster introspection and connection with nature.

Once at La Bolsa lagoon, we will explain its significance as a source of energy and renewal for the indigenous people, and you can enjoy views of the lagoon with Cumbal volcano in the background.

A boat will transport us across the lagoon to the municipality of Cumbal, where we will enter the Los Capotes Reserve and enjoy lunch consisting of soup, a fish main course, and a drink.

Finally, we will return to Pasto, arriving at approximately 6 pm.
