I visited this park when I was seventeen in 1971. It was not a tourist site then and it was only visited by archaeologists and a few adventurers like myself and my friends. The park had just a few trails and you had to bring your own water and food. We had no Merrell sandals in those days or nice backpacks or fast drying clothes like I do now. I remember reaching it by the beautiful beaches and climbing the old stone steps placed by the original settlers . We didn't run into anyone there and it took us all day to explore the surroundings. It's a wonderful, magical memory ( except for the sunburn) which I don't think I want to spoil going there nowadays. We also climbed the Sierra Nevada and enjoyed the hospitality of the Kogi. I wonder if they like all the tourists that go there these days.
Very informative and beautiful footage ..I’ve done Costa Rica ,el Salvador and Guatemala …Colombia is next in 2025 …take care and stay safe ..love lots from Philippines

hi! I was wondering if yellow fever vaccine is required to enter the park
Hi, it is indeed mandatory, but we have not been checked for this at the entrance.
