Spring Windmill and El Infiernito Tour
Description
Embark on a remarkable journey with the Spring Windmill and El Infiernito Tour, enabling you to explore two of the most iconic sites in Villa de Leyva.
Spring Windmill and El Infiernito Tour
Your adventure begins with a pick-up from your hotel in Valle de Leyva at a prearranged time, where we will board a minibus to venture towards Escondido Valley, a stunning plateau of 2 square kilometers embraced by the Cané River.
Enjoy the picturesque scenery during the ride, leading us to Molino de la Primavera, a charming two-story establishment where you will witness the traditional stone milling process. Get ready for an engaging experience! Following this, join us for a fun-filled Tejo game (similar to shuffleboard), a cherished tradition involving the throw of a metal ball onto a clay court. Are you prepared to put your skills to the test?
As we navigate the trails surrounding Villa de Leyva, we will soon arrive at El Infiernito, recognized as the Muisca astronomical observatory. While walking through this open space adorned with phallic monoliths, we will explore the cultural significance of these fertility symbols, with many reaching impressive heights of over 13 feet (4 meters)!
In conclusion, we will return to your hotel, wrapping up the tour approximately four hours after we first set out.
