Introducing KANAHRI, a cultural and spiritual co-existence in the sacred mountain.

Who We Are

We are the continuity of the wise grandparents from the Andes, belonging to the KAN-AH-RI culture.

We are descendants of the serpent and the macaw, which intertwine the realm of the Earth’s spirit and the realm of our celestial father’s wisdom.

We are the vibrant fruit of the sacred union, the divine connection to our origins.

Reviving the Spirit

Connecting the hearts of the children of the Earth to offer and share our heritage with the family that is in search of truth and divine connection, we contribute to the spirit and reach the hearts of those who love and preserve the purity of Mother Nature. We invite you to watch this video below, which compiles our community’s way of life.

Our Mission

Like driven by the wind of renewal, the silence of the sages of the Andes has ended, and the condors emerge from their retreats to unveil all the mystical and wisdom-filled treasures of America. We invite you to experience our way of life, share and enjoy our sacred ancestral practices, and become part of our family.
