Magical Hike Through the Paramo w/ Benjamin
Crested Outdoors的点评
点评：My boyfriend and I decided to tack on a four day/ three night hike with Crested Outdoors through Los Nevados before a wedding in Pereira. I felt like I really got a chance to experience the region and one of the most unique ecosystems in the world.
The absolutely highlight of our trek - together with the wonder of the ecosystems we got to trek through - was our guide Benjamin. He is an ecologist/botanist by trade who is so passionate about Nevados and the Andes mountains. I learned so much from him (including practicing my Spanish) and appreciated his support and enthusiasm throughout our at times strenuous hike.
Our hike started on Monday in Salento, a beautiful mountain town with lots of delicious food and coffee shops. We flew into Pereira late Saturday night and then spent Sunday in Salento acclimating to the altitude (which I definitely recommend).
On Monday morning, we were picked up in Salento with our guide and headed to El Cedral. From there we hike a full day through the lower Andean jungle to ElJordan, a small, clean and well run finca at the base of a waterfall. The food at this finca was delicious - soup, rice, plantains, chicken and delicious homemade hot chocolate.
On the second day we hiked through the high Andean jungle and into the paramo - an ecosystem unique to this part of the world with a ton of endemic plants and animals. We stayed at Finca Berlin, a larger and also very well run finca with delicious food and cozy double bunk beds.
On the third day we hiked from the valley of the paramo up to our highest point (4150m) and down through a dwarf forest to Finca Buenos Aires. We could have summits one of the nearby peaks on this day but the visibility was limited and we felt like we were seeing plenty as is.
The final day was all downhill through the different layers of Andean jungle, once again full of plants and animals. The forest and the paramo were truly magical and felt like walking through a world out of a fantasy novel.
To summarize, a few tips:
-Bring every item listed on the Crested Outdoors packing list (especially the poles). Really.
-Be prepared for safe, inviting and cozy but minimalist accomodations.
-Be flexible! It’s the wilderness and it is magical and can be challenging (but that’s part of the fun).

翻译：我和男朋友决定在佩雷拉参加一场婚礼之前，与 Crested Outdoors 一起在 Los Nevados 进行为期四天/三夜的徒步旅行。我觉得我真的有机会体验这个地区和世界上最独特的生态系统之一。
我们徒步旅行的绝对亮点——以及我们徒步穿越的生态系统的奇迹——是我们的导游本杰明。他是一名生态学家/植物学家，对内华达州和安第斯山脉充满热情。我从他那里学到了很多东西（包括练习我的西班牙语），并感谢他在我们有时费力的徒步旅行中给予的支持和热情。
我们的徒步旅行于周一在萨兰托开始，这是一个美丽的山城，有很多美味的食物和咖啡馆。我们周六深夜飞往佩雷拉，然后在周日在萨兰托适应海拔高度（我绝对推荐）。
周一早上，我们的导游在萨兰托接我们，前往埃尔塞德拉尔。从那里出发，我们徒步一整天穿过安第斯山脉的丛林，到达 ElJordan，这是一座位于瀑布底部的小型、干净且管理良好的庄园。这个庄园的食物非常美味 - 汤、米饭、芭蕉、鸡肉和美味的自制热巧克力。
第二天，我们徒步穿过安第斯山脉的高地丛林，进入了高山地带 - 这是该地区独有的生态系统，拥有大量特有的动植物。我们住在柏林庄园，这是一座更大、管理也非常好的庄园，有美味的食物和舒适的双层床。
第三天，我们从高山地带的山谷徒步到最高点（4150 米），然后穿过一片矮树林，到达布宜诺斯艾利斯庄园。我们当天可以登上附近的一座山峰，但能见度有限，我们觉得我们已经看到了很多。
最后一天全是下坡路，穿过安第斯山脉丛林的不同层次，再次充满了动植物。森林和高山草原真的很神奇，感觉就像走在奇幻小说的世界里一样。
总结一下，这里有几点建议：
- 带上 Crested Outdoors 打包清单上列出的每件物品（尤其是登山杖）。真的。
- 为安全、温馨、舒适但简约的住宿做好准备。
- 灵活应对！这是荒野，很神奇，可能很有挑战性（但这也是乐趣的一部分）。
