This mountain range rises from the Caribbean coast like a stairway to the sky, home to the Indigenous Kogi people and the lost city of Ciudad Perdida. The multi-day trek here is a pilgrimage, best approached with clear intent and sobriety—though cannabis or a low psilocybin dose may deepen post-hike reflections. Near the coast, Costeño Beach’s hammocks and bonfires create a gentle container for MDMA or shared mushroom experiences, the salt air softening edges.

The Kogi speak of aluna (the spiritual world beneath reality); in these mountains, that unseen layer feels palpable. If you visit, tread lightly: this is sacred land, not a backdrop for indulgence.
