Guatape and El Peñol Day-Trip from Medellin

Highlights

Leistungen

Ablauf

1. This tour will take you to one of Colombia’s must-see attractions: the massive rock La Piedra de Guatapé, also known as El Peñol or simply La Piedra (The Stone). Merely a one-and-a-half hour drive east of Medellín, the rock is located right next to the Peñol-Guatapé Dam, near the border of the towns Guatapé and El Peñol. You’ll be breathless after climbing up the 649 stairs – not only because of the hike but also the astonishing view!

2. As soon as you get off the bus, you are ready to start the hike up to the top of La Piedra, where you’ll have time to relax and marvel at the panoramic view over the beautiful lake and its magnificent surroundings. Back at the bottom, you’ll have a closer look at the environment and capture its beauty from different perspectives. You will also get to hear the story about the letters G and U imprinted on the north side of the rock, telling us about two cities claiming El Peñol as their own. The next part of our tour includes visiting the gorgeous colorful town of Guatapé. Walking down the cobblestone streets of the laid-back village you’ll admire the decorative panels at the base of the houses. In Guatapé you’ll also get a delicious meal in one of the nicest traditional restaurants with the best local ingredients. After a good hike, and a walk through the town of Guatapé, you’ll return to the bus and will be on your way back to Medellín.

About Medellín

Medellín ist Kolumbiens frühlingshafte Stadt in den Anden, bekannt für Seilbahnen, lebendige Viertel und eine bemerkenswerte Verwandlungsgeschichte.

Die Stadt füllt ein langes Andental, mit Backsteinhäusern, die die Hänge hinaufklettern, und einem so milden Klima, dass sie den Namen Stadt des ewigen Frühlings trägt. Ihre Metro und die Metrocable-Seilbahnen verbinden die Hangviertel mit dem Zentrum und bieten weite Ausblicke auf der Fahrt hinauf zu den Wäldern des Parque Arví.
