विवरण

If you're visiting Guatapé and the Rock, why not get the most of the trip and visit other beautiful areas and landscapes in the region just by taking a different road?
After being picked up from your Medellin hotel in private transportation, head to the enchanting east side of the city. Pass through the longest tunnel in South America, offering a unique experience as you make your way to one of the most picturesque regions in Antioquia.

Witness a mesmerizing transformation in the landscape, as the bustling cityscape gradually gives way to colorful little farms hidden throughout the Andes mountains. Stop at Alto del Chocho, a typical restaurant surrounded by stunning scenery, renowned for its delicious pan de queso (cheese rolls).

Then, pass by El Peñol, a town that rose from the ashes after a big flooding in the 1970s. Learn how the original town was completely submerged but the community rebuilt on higher ground, giving birth to the "Phoenix of America," a testament to the human spirit and the power of community.

Next, stop at the magnificent El Peñol Rock, a rock formation that reaches an impressive height of 650 feet. If you’re adventurous, conquer the 740 stairs leading to the top for an amazing panorama of the surrounding landscapes.

If climbing the rock isn't your cup of tea, you can enjoy the beauty of the Rock from the base, where magnificent views of the reservoir and mountains unfold before your eyes. Continue to the magical Guatape town, where houses, balconies, and parks are adorned in vibrant colors.

Take a 20-30-minute walk through its neighborhoods, cobblestone streets, and hidden alleys, exploring colorful plazas and passing by traditional homes. Take in not only the stunning scenery but also the proud culture that defines this extraordinary place.

After the walk, find a cozy spot at the Zocalo Plaza to relax and unwind. Sip a cup of coffee or a refreshing beverage while you soak up the ambiance. As you engage in people-watching and embrace the simplicity of life, feel a true connection with the local way of living.

Next, head to the stunning Tequendamita Falls, a waterfall surrounded by the lush greenery of the forest. Witness an embodiment of the "Magical Realism" that defines the essence of Colombian culture and its deep connection to nature.

Finally, arrive in El Retiro Town, known for its longstanding tradition of woodworking and furniture craftsmanship. Take a short walk or drive, as your prefence, through its neighborhoods, admiring the intricate architecture of the houses, the charming cobblestone streets, and the ornate wooden doors, windows, and balconies.

महत्वपूर्ण जानकारी
If you wish to climb the 740 stairs to El Peñol Rock, some of which are steep and tight, bring comfortable shoes and prepare for a workout! The highest point is 2000 meters above sea level, so if you live by the shore or ocean level, you could take a little longer.
