    Tips

    June 19, 2024

    The Alto de la Mina village is located 14 km from Chinchiná, on the Vía a Marsella, passing through Alto Curacao, the Manuel Mejía Foundation and the Naranjal Bankruptcy. They are also part of the declaration of the Coffee Cultural Landscape in 2011 made by UNESCO.

    Some petroglyphs dating back more than 10,000 years ago, made by prehistoric ancestors from the Neolithic period, have been found within the path.

    As for the history of the top of the mine, the path was generated as such with the Gómez family, owners of the Sinaí hacienda, this family from Antioquia who arrived in search of gold and took this area as a reference with the name of the "top of the mine." Some time later, this activity was abandoned because it was not so profitable and they dedicated themselves to growing coffee, especially coffee, this being their main livelihood today. Currently, the founders of the village are in their fifth generation, and the tourism service is also available.
