2. The Old Peñol Replica is a theme park that evokes and keeps alive the memory of the old town that was flooded between 1971 and 1978 to make way for the Peñol-Guatapé Reservoir. The replica recreates and reproduces what were the most emblematic places within the main park, such as the park, the parish temple and the town hall, along with other beautiful balconies and colorful structures that function as commercial premises where it is possible to find, among others, beautiful crafts and local souvenirs.

3. Imagine that the evening sun begins to caress the water, tinting it with golden and emerald tones. The boat moves smoothly over the calm surface of the Guatapé reservoir, leaving behind a trail of white foam that dissolves in seconds. Fresh air brings with it the aroma of vegetation and a distant murmur of birds flying over the small green islands. At every turn, the view is transformed: on one side, the towering Stone of the Rock rises like an eternal guardian; on the other, colorful houses peek coyly among the hills, reflecting in the water mirror. The sky, dotted with soft clouds, frames a landscape that looks hand-painted. There is time for photos, to close your eyes and let the wind caress your face, to absorb every detail as if time had stopped. It is an instant in which the heart is filled with gratitude and memory forever records the feeling of freedom, beauty and connection with nature.

   45 min

4. The Peñon de Guatape is a stone 240 meters high, it is a granitic mass, composed of quartz, feldspar and mica, that extends over Guatapense lands and in its highest place you can see all the beautiful landscape that surrounds it , filled with water from the dam and the forest reserve in the area. To reach its summit it is necessary to climb more than 700 steps. They seem like a lot but I assure you that they are worth climbing each step since from the moment you begin the ascent you will begin to observe a beautiful landscape and at its highest point you will find a truly impressive 360º view. The ascent to Piedra del Peñol is not included because this is an optional service that is purchased directly at the stone ticket office (price $25,000 Colombians per person)

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.
