Spring Windmill and El Infiernito Tour

Your adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in Valle de Leyva at the scheduled time, followed by a minibus ride to the Escondido Valley, a stunning 2 square kilometer plateau along the picturesque Cané River.

As we make our way, take in the beautiful scenery until we reach Molino de la Primavera. This two-story establishment will immerse you in the traditional stone milling process. Get ready for an engaging experience! Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to take part in a Tejo game (shuffleboard), a classic local pastime where you throw a metal ball onto a clay court. Are you ready to showcase your skills?

Following a stroll along the scenic trails of Villa de Leyva, we will arrive at El Infiernito, the astronomical observatory of the Muisca civilization. As we meander through this landscape adorned with striking phallic monoliths, we will discuss their significance as symbols of fertility in the local culture, noting their impressive height of over 13 feet (4 meters).

In conclusion, we will return you to your hotel, wrapping up the tour approximately four hours after we began.
