Bëtsknatë

Bëtsknatë, known as the “Día Grande” (Great Day), is the most important ancestral festival of the Kamëntsá and Inga peoples of the Sibundoy Valley in Putumayo, Colombia. It marks a time of gratitude for the harvest, reconciliation, and spiritual renewal, when families and communities come together to honor Mother Earth, ask forgiveness, and restore harmony among themselves. Through traditional dress, music, dance, visits to sacred places and collective offerings, Bëtsknatë reaffirms their role as guardians of territory, memory and biodiversity, and celebrates the understanding that everything is alive and deeply interconnected.

About the Journey

Combining ancestral practices with daily meditation and special guided exercises, this retreat is a unique opportunity to experience Bëtsknatë in an intimate, held setting. Guided by local authorities, elders, and experienced facilitators, you will visit sacred sites such as El Salado and the Patoyaco Reserve, engage in community work with artisans and elders, join word circles and traditional practices, and walk ancestral paths in spiritual and ecological encounters. In the days leading up to Bëtsknatë, you will prepare through clothing, music, and movement workshops, and then participate in Bëtsknatë and Atumpunche, the harvest festival shared by Inga and Kamëntsá communities. Daily life is shared in community including meals, stories, work, and celebration while staying at Casona Mujay “Espíritu Vivo,” a living cultural space and experiential museum where knowledge is transmitted through oral tradition, practice, and direct connection with the territory. Optional individual healing sessions and traditional medicine ceremonies (Yagé, Kambó, and others) are available on site, always voluntary and guided by local protocols.

ACOMODATION

Casa Munay is not a hotel, but a community space created to receive guests as part of the family. This retreat is an invitation in to their home and daily life, where the community opens its doors so you can live as they do simply, closely connected to each other and to the territory. There are a few options for accommodation: only two rooms have a private bathroom, while the remaining rooms can be booked as private or shared, with access to five shared toilets. The simplicity of the infrastructure is part of the experience: it reflects the values of community, reciprocity, and coexistence that are at the heart of this journey.
