On this hike, we will walk to the Pachamama finca located near the village of El Limon.

 

During these 2 hours of walking in the countryside, we will take small paths, sometimes on the hillside with magnificent views.

We will discover the fauna and flora of the country as well as the medicinal plants used at the time by the Tainos and still used today by the Dominicans.

 

Apart from a few peasants that we may come across, we will be “alone in the world”.

 

We will have lunch at the Pachamama finca, a place created by a couple passionate about permaculture and Ker terre construction. They also produce local organic products.

 

They will prepare a typical local Dominican meal for us.

 

Then they will show us around their property as well as their crops and explain to us how they do things.

 

Finally they will make us participate in a small workshop on permaculture or kerterres

 

At 4 p.m., we will leave the finca and reach Barbacoa in a 2-hour walk.

 

The path will be different from that of the morning.
