Barichara

Barichara has no airport of its own -- most visitors fly into Bucaramanga's Palonegro International Airport, then continue by road (roughly 2-3 hours) or via the closer town of San Gil (around 30-45 minutes), which has more frequent onward transport. The town center itself is small and easily walkable, with narrow colonial streets that give it an almost car-free feel even where vehicles are technically allowed. The Camino Real, a centuries-old stone trail connecting Barichara to the nearby village of Guane, is a popular half-day walk rather than a means of practical transport.
