Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia · Colombia
Trek through the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta — the world's highest coastal mountain range, rising 5,775 m from sea level in just 42 km — to reach the Lost City (Ciudad Perdida), a pre-Columbian city built around 800 AD, 650 years before Machu Picchu. The 4-6 day return trek involves steep jungle climbs, river crossings, and overnight camps in the forest. Indigenous Kogi, Arhuaco, and Wiwa communities maintain spiritual custodianship of the mountains; their restrictions on access to certain areas are respected by all tour operators.
