Gondava, Prehistoric theme park in Sáchica, Colombia
Gondava is a prehistoric theme park with life-sized replicas of dinosaurs and other extinct creatures positioned across landscaped grounds featuring educational exhibits and walking paths. The site includes learning stations at different points where visitors can discover information about ancient species and their world.
The park was established to complement the region's rich paleontological history, with numerous fossil discoveries found throughout the surrounding Boyacá department. This connection to Colombia's scientific past makes the location relevant for understanding the prehistoric world.
Families come here to introduce children to science through interactive exhibits that explain how life evolved on Earth. The place creates a playful setting where visitors of all ages can engage with natural science concepts.
The park opens Tuesday through Sunday with guided tours available in Spanish and English, plus designated areas for meals and rest. Wearing comfortable shoes is helpful since you explore the grounds on foot and the paths vary in length.
You can bring your pets to explore the prehistoric exhibits here, a feature that makes it the first dinosaur park of its kind in Colombia to allow this. This pet-friendly policy makes a visit especially enjoyable for families traveling with companion animals.
