Guican, nice village at almost 3000m, with direct 11hrs bus connection to Bogota.

Going up to 3800m by regular local truck

Landscape between Guican and Nevado del Cocuy mountains.

Cabanas Kanwara, at almost 4000m, highest place where one can go by car. But  more interesting start of trek would be from Escuela Candelaria on the way here (from about 3600m) and then going up by Rio Cardenillo to Laguna Verdes instead of starting by jeep road.
