Savanna Orinoquía Lodge is a private luxury lodge located on the banks of the Cravo Sur River, at the Colombian Eastern plains.
This geographical region shared by Colombia and Venezuela is a collage of infinite plains around the Orinoco river’s basin, that shelters great biodiversity, and its residents have a deep cultural identity strongly attached to the natural environment, both wild and beautiful.
Agriculture and cattle breeding has been for many years the pillars of development in this region; the fertile and vast savannas constitute the habitat of thousands of heads of cattle that are skillfully bred by native herdsmen, whose traditions and customs are comparable to those of the North American cowboys or the pamperos and gauchos in the South.
With an average temperature of 26°C (78°F), this tropical region is famous for having changing ecosystems throughout the year since it has two seasons: rain (from April to October) and dry (from November to March), which is why the access roads are mostly unpaved and they can only be transited with wheel drive vehicles.
Included activities

It is an ideal experience to blend in with the environment and also for a very special one to exercise on the go. It can be done bording the Caño or the River.

- Bongo (river boat) through Cravo Sur River: Two-hour quick crossing along the Cravo Sur River, appreciating the great jungles that surround it and the birds that fly by, living a feeling of freedom and appreciating every second of the plains’ sunset. This is available always during rainy season, sometimes during dry depending on the level of the river.
- Horsebackriding experience: Up to 4 hours. Ideal activity to experience the daily life of a cowboy llanero, herding cattle and looking for a wonderful encounter with exotic animals and birds.
