Inga Aponte is a indigenous reservation located 4 hours away from Pasto, Capital city of Nariño department.
The Ingas as they are named, are decedents of the Incas and have been established since the 18th century. The Ingas are proud of their culture, and one of the most prosperous native communities in Colombia. Because of their location near to the Amazonas forest, they keep an active exchange with other native tribes in the neighboring Putumayo department that live in the highly dense jungle.
