What to do and see in Pereira, Risaralda Department: The Best Nature & Parks

January 20, 2022 Weston Hennigan

The vibrancy of Pereira is due in part to its large population of students, who roam the European-style streets in search of coffee, cheap eats or ways to blow off steam between exams. Explore the nature walks of El Cedral eco-park, then marvel at the exotic creatures you’ll find at both the Zoo Matecaña and the nightclubs of Avenida Simón Bolivar. Pereira is one of the three cities comprising Colombia’s “coffee triangle,” so a perfect cup is never too far away.

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

Reviewed By libardovicev

Starting from El Cedral, in the outskirts of Pereira, you can enjoy a 12 h walk to the Otun Lake. You would have to sleep in El Jordan or other place (book in advance). It is better to get in advance a mule to bring your things
