Our first stop is in this emblematic place where we can see a replica of the old Peñol de Guatapé. Our guides will give you a historical explanation of the construction of the place and you will be able to see how the town of Peñol was in its beginnings before the flooding. The time we spend here is about 30 minutes, but we have to add the transfer time from Medellin, approximately 2 hours and a half extra. to this time we add the time it takes us to pick up all our visitors for approximately one hour.
Here we will take a 20 minutes boat tour of the dam, besides the beautiful panoramic view we can also enjoy the Colombian trova on board the boat, our captain will give you the explanation of the most significant points of interest such as spectacular houses of some international atristas and world-class soccer players. to the time of the walk we will add 1 hour for lunch.
The Peñol de Guatapé rock is a monolith 220 meters high, located in the municipality of Guatapé, Antioquia, Colombia.1 The Peñol rock is a granite mass, composed of quartz, feldspar and mica, and was first climbed on July 16, 1954. You will have an hour and a half to climb up and down in the challenge of the day to climb 708 steps to the top, no doubt you will not regret it when you get there and see the spectacular panoramic view of the reservoir. Remember that the access ticket is not included in the cost of the tour and has a value of 25 thousand Colombian pesos.

About Medellín
Medellín is Colombia's spring-like city in the Andes, known for its cable cars, vibrant neighbourhoods and remarkable story of transformation.
The city fills a long Andean valley, with brick houses climbing the slopes and a climate mild enough to earn it the name City of Eternal Spring. Its metro and Metrocable cable cars link hillside communities to the centre and give sweeping views on the ride up toward the forests of Parque Arví.
