Bei dieser Reise erkunden Sie diese verschiedenen Ökosysteme zu Fuß und per Fahrrad. Trekking im Nationalpark Cocuy und in die Ciudad Perdida Von Bogotá aus, der Hauptstadt in den Anden, besuchen Sie das malerische Villa de Leyva, ein Dorf im Kolonialstil. Bei einer ersten Wanderung durch tropische Hochgebirgsvegetation können Sie sich ideal für das anschließende 3-tägige Trekking durch die Sierra de Cocuy, eine der schönsten Gebirgsformationen der südamerikanischen Anden, akklimatisieren. Eine Páramo-Landschaft mit riesigen Frailejones (Schopfrosettenbäumchen), 1 / 8 Gletscherlagunen und schneebedeckte Gipfel erwarten Sie.

X - PLORE EXPEDICIONES X - PLORE GROUP COLOMBIA: EL SECRETO MEJOR GUARDADO INTRODUCCIÓN Colombia es el cuarto país más grande de América del Sur y el tercer país con mayores recursos hídricos del mundo. Aunque sólo representa un 0.7% de la superficie terrestre, cerca del 14% de la flora y fauna del planeta y el 7 % de la selva amazónica se encuentr an en territorio colombiano. En Colombia hay 1.860 variedades de aves registradas que representan el 19% de todas las especies del mundo y 60% de las existentes en Sudamérica. Además ocupa el segundo lugar entre los países que exhiben la mayor diversidad de mariposas del mundo (3.000 familias y 14 especies). Y por si esto fuera poco , tiene la particularidad de estar bañada por los océanos Atlántico y Pacífico y atravesada por la espec tacular cordillera de los Andes . En 2006 la prestigiosa Lonely Planet escogió Colombia como uno de los destinos top 10 mundiales. En febrero de 2010, Colombia fue reconocida como «el mejor destino» del mundo en la feria turística más prestigiosa de Europa - «Times Destinations Travel Show» de Londres. Según el New York Times, Colombia quedó clasificada en segundo lugar después de Estambul, y entre 1.700 destinos turísticos, en la lista de los sitios más interesantes para visitar en el 2011. Y a pesar de el lo, Colombia sigue siendo un destino poco turístico (exceptuando las áreas del Caribe y del Eje Cafetero), emergente, desconocido y muy atractivo, con una gran diversidad multicultural y étnica (tiene 84 etnias indígenas), una naturaleza salvaje y abrumado ra, ciudades coloniales ancladas en el pasado y yacimientos arqueológicos precolombinos que son Patrimonio de la Humanidad por UNESCO.

    Neuanfang – oder die Frage nach dem Warum Die Welt mit jeder Reise einen Schritt besser machen. Unser Manifest Neuanfang – oder die Frage nach dem Warum … Neuanfang? Ist es berechtigt in dieser Zeit von einem Neuanfang zu sprechen? Ich meine Ja. Wir erleben gerade eine der schwersten Krisen der letzten Jahrzehnte, die mich und meine Firma zutiefst getroffen hat. Eine Krise stellt Fragen an uns, geht an unsere Substanz. Auf was haben wir unser Haus des Lebens gebaut? Hält unsere Vision, unser Lebensentwurf? Krise kommt vom griechischen Wort krynein, was soviel wie Ent- scheidungszeit bedeutet. Krisen sind Zeiten der Ent – Täuschung – wo haben wir uns getäuscht oder täuschen lassen? Krisen sind der ultimative „reality check“ unseres Lebens. Vielleicht ging es Ihnen ähnlich in dieser Zeit? Was hat die Krise zu Ihnen gesagt, welche Antworten haben Sie gefunden? Die Frage, die diese Krise an mich gestellt hat, war die „Warum-Frage“. Warum mache ich das, was ich mache? Warum gibt es Hauser? Warum arbeite ich im Tourismus, obwohl das nie mein Wunsch war? Einige Auswüchse der Tourismusindustrie waren mir schon früh suspekt, lehne ich auch heute noch ab und ich weiß, dass auch in unserem Kundenkreis viele diese Skepsis teilen. Ich wollte mit meiner Arbeit und meinem Leben die Welt besser machen. Mir war es immer wichtig einen Beitrag zu leisten, auch wenn das vielleicht naiv und pathe- tisch klingt. Aber die letzten Wochen haben mir gezeigt, dass dieses Bedürfnis zutiefst in mir steckt und mich stetig antreibt. Das war auch immer mein Wunsch mit Hauser Exkursionen. Wir als Team erleben gerade mehr denn je was uns antreibt und worauf es uns ankommt: Zusammenhalt, das Gespräch mit Ihnen, die Hoffnung in die Zukunft.

  • The Foods and Crops of the Muisca: a Dietary Reconstruction of the Intermediate Chiefdoms of Bogotá (Bacatá) and Tunja (Hunza), Colombia
    THE FOODS AND CROPS OF THE MUISCA: A DIETARY RECONSTRUCTION OF THE INTERMEDIATE CHIEFDOMS OF BOGOTÁ (BACATÁ) AND TUNJA (HUNZA), COLOMBIA by JORGE LUIS GARCIA B.A. University of Central Florida, 2005 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Anthropology in the College of Sciences at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Spring Term 2012 Major Professor: Arlen F. Chase ABSTRACT The Muisca people of the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia had an exceptionally complex diet, which is the result of specific subsistence strategies, environmental advantages, and social restrictions. The distinct varieties of microclimates, caused by the sharp elevations in this part of the Andes, allows for a great biodiversity of plants and animals that was accessible to the native population. The crops of domesticated and adopted plants of the Muisca include a wide variety of tubers, cereals, fruits, and leaves that are described in detail in this thesis. The Muisca used an agricultural method known as microverticality where the different thermic floors are utilized to grow an impressive variety of species at various elevations and climates. This group also domesticated the guinea pig, controlled deer populations and possibly practiced pisiculture, patterns that are also described in this text. Some of the foods of the Muisca were restricted to specific social groups, such as the consumption of deer and maize by the chiefly classes and the consumption of roots and tubers by the lower class, hence the complexity of their dietary practices. The utensils utilized in the preparation and processing of foods, including ceramics and stone tools were once of extreme importance in the evolution of the Muisca diet and form an important part of this research as well as the culinary methods that are described in the Spanish chronicles and by contemporary experts.

The distances are not long but the terrain is often hilly and most days we expect to ride for between 3-5 hours. There are a couple of harder days with over 1,000 metres climbing on the tour, but the support vehicle allows you to do as much cycling as you wish. There are also a few single-track sections where the vehicle cannot follow and your guides will make sure you are well aware of these days and before we hit this part of the route.
