Once in a lifetime hike - Amazing! Steven was an excellent guide. He was knowledgeable, patient, and took the experience to the top. The hike itself is not for the weak— pack waterproof shoes and prepare for a long, treacherous journey through deep mud and up steep inclines. The views along the way and at the top make it all worth it. I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Bogota and wishing to take a day out of the city to appreciate nature and one of the most unique biomes in the world! Big thanks again to our guide Steven for making the trip extra special.

Beautiful Hike and Great Guide - We got lucky with beautiful weather, and the tour was fantastic. Our guide Diego was friendly and passionate about showing us the páramo. It is a beautiful landscape just a couple hours outside of the city, and a great way to see a completely different part of bogota. Would definitely recommend

Breathtaking, in more ways than one! - We did the Sumapaz Páramo hike with Gran Colombia who were able to accommodate our needs on relatively short notice. Liz was our guide and Carlos our driver; they were both terrific. It was a very challenging hike, with the altitude going up and slippery loose rocks and narrow paths going down but it was worth it to be able to take in such an enchanting environment. Even if you have some light rain and fog like we did, the frailejones are a sight to behold! Bring warm layers (including rain gear and waterproof hiking boots) and water/snacks. Hiking poles were provided which came in handy. If you are prone to motion sickness, the roads to the páramo are quite curvy so just something to keep in mind. While it sounds like this hike and páramo don't get quite as much attention from visitors as other attractions, if you have some time while in Bogotá and love the outdoors, contact Gran Colombia and go for it!

Unique and active adventure with a misleading listing - Overall we enjoyed this tour. The scenery was breathtaking and unlike anything we’ve ever seen. We did some bird watching which was a bonus. The guide Daniel was kind and knowledgeable about birds, but his English was poor. The 2 hour drive to the trailhead was rough and bumpy made worse by a cramped and uncomfortable van with bad suspension. The driver was very kind and safe though. The TripAdvisor listing is misleading as we did not actually enter the National Park, hiking from a farm up into private land at the edge of the park. So the “What’s Included” segment saying entry fees are covered is not true. The hike was 1 hour and 45 minutes up and took us to a beautiful lookout at 12,300 feet, so the gain in altitude was a bit less than 2,000 feet. The trail was slightly muddy, not difficult, but required good balance as it was very rutted and a bit rocky. Bring your own water and snacks, and layer up because the temperature changed from the 60’s and sunny to the low 40’s with wind and misty rain.

Great time and great views! Really unique experience :) - The views and ecosystem were really unique!! The guide was knowledgeable about Bogotá and the environment. My only small wish would be a bit more enthusiasm from the guide, but that is all!! :)
