The hike begins on the same path as the one leading to the Mirador. However, at the foot of the Mirador, go straight on instead of uphill. The trail then descends through a forest, offering an immersive entry into this natural environment.
After about 30 minutes' descent, you'll reach a finca. Toururn right in front of the house and follow the path past some cow fences. This section passes through a lush rainforest ecosystem, punctuated by small quebradas (streams) and unique panoramas of Bonda and the Caribbean coast. These little-traveled trails offer absolute tranquility.
After about an hour's walk, keep your eyes peeled for the small path that climbs up on your right. This is where the most demanding part begins: a 600 m climb, to be completed in around an hour. This narrow path is sometimes overgrown with ferns, making progress a little more technical.
Once at the top, turn right onto a relatively flat path. Allow around 30 minutes for the final descent to Mundo Nuevo.
