What you can expect

  • Board a “brujita” — a motorized rail cart unique to San Cipriano — and glide 15 minutes through the Pacific rainforest into one of Colombia's most biodiverse reserves. This full-day trip from Cali blends distinctive transport, crystal-clear rivers, and Afro-Pacific tradition into one route.

    Departure is from Cali toward Córdoba (Valle del Cauca), where you'll swap the road for the rails and ride the brujitas to the entrance of the San Cipriano Natural Reserve. A typical breakfast is served in the local community before the day begins.

    From there, you'll walk to the Refugio del Amor, a natural pool fed by transparent waters with a small waterfall — the perfect spot to swim and cool off. When river conditions allow, you'll float down the San Cipriano River on an inner tube, drifting through dense tropical forest.

    The day closes with a traditional Pacific lunch and free time to relax by the water before the brujita ride back and the return drive to Cali.

    Roundtrip transport, reserve entry, both meals, guided activities, hydration, and medical assistance are included — so you can focus on the jungle, not the logistics.
