My husband and I did the shorter (out and back; 6km/2hrs return) hike with our two boys, aged 7 and 5. Wow - amazing views of towering wax palms and lush mountain scenery. Just like the Truffala Trees in the Dr Seuss book ‘The Lorax’! Views in the morning were magical, but the weather definitely started closing in with clouds rolling over from around 10:30/11. This was an easy hike to do with children. We took the shared Willy/Jeep from the main square in Salento at 8:30 (they leave hourly on the half hour) and returned on the 11:30 transport. I would’ve loved to have done the larger circuit, but 12km/5-6hrs was probably a bit of a stretch for a 5 year old, unfortunately! It wasn’t particularly crowded and the trail was very easy to walk on - no rain on the morning we went, and regular sports shoes were fine as there really wasn’t a lot of mud at all. Perhaps we got lucky, as it does get quite wet at this time of year!

This tour is a must if you visit Medellin, given that is at a 1hr distance and is a different type of town with an incredible view when you go to the top of the rock (650 steps approximately). I’ve never seen anything like this and with no doubts I’ll go back if I visit Colonia again.

Knowing the snow-capped Santa Isabel is an excellent experience to learn and enjoy the Colombian high mountains. Meet exuberant landscapes, experience new sensations at more than 4,500 meters above sea level, recreate in natural environments, Live with Cattleya Ecotourism.

The hike to Nevado Santa Isabel is not long but it can be difficult for some people due to high elevation. The views are amazing. But be sure to bring warm clothes and drink a lot of water during the hike. The weather in this area can change rapidly. When I was hiking the weather went from warm and sunny to cold, cloudy, and rainy

Pictures can’t do this unique valley justice. You have to experience it. We did the 12 km loop counter clockwise (steep part first) and were treated to a cool river trail that crosses the river several times over wooden suspension bridges (one person at a time please ????) then a pretty good climb but very doable. Then once at the top you begin to enjoy the easy path down with many photo opportunities. Think Jurassic park and Dr Suess... Highly recommended!

This is a must see park if you are in Santander and in this area. You can either get here by car or cable car. I would strongly recommend the cable car. You not only get to see the marvelous engineering in the construction of this cable car, but also beautiful scenery. It will take you about 22 minutes from the entrance to the park. There is a cost associated with the park and it can vary from $15-18 dollars (depending on the dollar price at the moment) and also wether or not you want to visit the Water park. There is a lot of walking to do, make sure you have water, a good camera and most important a Great attitude. You will find restaurants, shops and you will also have the opportunity to buy Organic coffee. There are activities to do inside the park. Zip lining, you can climb down a water rock about 140 ft, there is also a swing. They all have different prices, but averaging $7-10 dollars. There is also a lot of history. Temperature was about in the 80s and I was told it is always hot. So, I would recommend to do some research about the temperature if you don’t like hot weather. I hope you visit and enjoy it.

Thanks to previous travel bloggers for paving the way and giving us direction for our own trip. Taking into account the previously-shared knowledge, here was our experience: - Took the metro from El Poblado to Caribe and walked across to the gangway to the bus terminal. - Found ticket booth #14 for buses to Guatape with a bus company is called “Sotrasanvicente & Guatape La Piedra”. - We could only buy one-way tickets there and they cost $15,000 each. I believe buses leave every hour and we only waited 15 minutes. - The bus trip took two hours since it was constantly picking up and dropping off travellers, entertainers and vendors of snacks. - Listened for the call for La Piedra and got off the bus then walked up the stairs for 10-15 minutes to the touristy area. - Paid $18,000 to walk up 700 more steps to the incredible lookout, then paid $4000 to take a shared Jeep-like taxi to the town of Guatape. - We had lunch at a locals’ restaurant by the lake for only $23,000 for two people! - Bought a return ticket for $15,000 and saw people buying them right before the bus left so there’s no rush, but don’t wait too long (return schedule is attached). We decided to pass on a tour from Medellin since they were more expensive, left at 7:30 am, and the one we wanted was sold out the night before our final day in Medellín. Here are our total costs per person: $5,100 metro round trip $15,000 bus $18,000 La Piedra lookout $4,000 taxi to Guatape $12,000 lunch $4,000 street dessert $15,000 bus = $55,100 for a lovely day trip!

Beautiful place to go. Water is a little aggressive so it is important to follow instructions (stay within the swimming area). The water is absolutely beautiful and very warm. There were lockers to keep the belongings. Food was also fabulous (fried red snapper was the best of all 4 fish).
