We started trekking around 8:15AM at the Calabazo entrance.
There are 2 entrances into the Parque Nacional. The Calabazo entrance is the less frequented entrance because it takes 2 hours to trek from the Calabazo town entrance to the park entrance. Luckily you can hire a mototaxi to drop you off at the park entrance, and that's what my friend Isa and I did.
💸 Price Breakdown:
- 10.000 pesos for motoxi
- 5.000 pesos for Associaton of Agriculture of Sierra Nevado of Santa Marta fee
- 6.000 pesos for medical insurance fee (green wrist band)
- 62.000 pesos for park entrance fee for non-Colombian citizens (yellow wrist band)

| Hiking through Tayrona National Parque |
This route had a lot of inclines and switch backs, but once we got to the beach side, it was mostly flat.
The most popular beach is the Cabo San Juan Beach, which had tents and hammocks you can rent and stay in the park.

Once you reach the beach side of the park, there are several beaches you can stop and relax at!!
We also took some time to chill and eat at La Piscina Beach. There were some food stalls for fruits and snacks.

| Trekking from the beach to the Zaino Entrance |
 |
| Beach Views 🏝 |
Zaino Entrance is the Main Entrance into the National Park. Theres' a shuttle bus that takes you up to the hiking part. This way is mostly flat, and easier to trek along to get to the beach side. There are also horses you can hire to ride to take you to the beach.

| Finished by 3:45PM!! |
It was a beautiful experience to visit Tayrona National Park!! If I were to do it again, I would definitely hike from the Zaino Main entrance and stay a night or two in the park. We did not see any animals in the park during our trip, but I found a site that mentioned there are lots of animals that can be spotted in this beautiful park!! 🌴
