Event Details
Join for an epic journey to the home of Yage to visit the elders.
Taita Libarado is hosting a campamento at his home and Maloka in Cofan indigenous reservation, and he would love to share this with you. There will be three nights of ceremony, plus hortiga treatment, tobacco purge, and a trip to the waterfall and river. After the campamento, you will spend one night in Puerto Asis before heading home.

You will need to bring your own camping hammock for use while at the homes of the elders, this will be your bed. Blankets can be purchased upon arrival in Puerto Asis.
You will need to bring only a large camping style backpack, this is not the trip for wheeled luggage. I will send recommendations for both hammocks and bags before the trip.
Meals are included, however, please note, we are at the home of the elders and variety may be lacking. If you have a special diet, or are someone that needs more food than most, you may want to pack your own protein snacks like nuts, nut butters, bars. Vegetarian/vegan/gluten free travelers should note that while we provide suggested menus and options, these types of diets are still new to this region of Colombia. The food at the homes of the elders is prepared not by a chef, but a family member. Please keep an open heart and mind. Fresh vegetables are not in abundance, a typical meal might be rice, yucca, fish, a small salad. Breakfast may be eggs and arepas with fruit.
