Puritama Canyon and Guatin Trekking

About this activity

We will trek for approximately 1 hour through a canyon of impressive beauty, which owes its name to the Puritama River, a river with temperate waters, where we can enjoy a swim in the middle of this canyon in natural pools among local vegetation.

During the morning we will share a delicious breakfast while enjoying one of the most beautiful postcards.
