Review the Medellín Aerial Hammocks, Zip and Waterfall Trek, with timing, price, hiking, safety, transport, and practical booking advice.
“An absolute must do for the adventurous! Felipe was a fantastic guide, lots of energy and knowledge. We began with a stop at a beautiful waterfall along the way to the main attraction. Once we got to the Los Saltos Ecopark, we hiked down to a long zip line across a canyon with epic views. After than we hiked down to the base of an intense, impressive waterfall. So beautiful! After a lunch among the trees at a small cafe, I got to relax in a hammock…. On the zip line 400m in the air!”
Visit Cali’s Chorrera del Indio waterfall, swim in Pance River, hike to a second fall, and enjoy local food with guide Mateo.
“Both the Rio Pance and the waterfall were very nice. The best part of the morning was Mateo's commentary on the birds and forest. He was great. This is a relaxing way to escape the city.”
Review of Cali’s Pance Waterfalls hike, with mountain views, three falls, natural pools, lunch, transport, and a small six-person group.
“Alejandro, our guide, is extremely friendly, well informed, committed to his community's well-being, and persistent in making sure everyone is able to understand, feels comfortable, and respects the environment. The trek was invigorating and fun. We saw beautiful fauna and flora -- especially butterflies! The lunch was scrumptious. The whole tour came off smoothly, from coordination and pick up to drop off. The length was just right for us, as we wanted to get out of the city, see the mountainous forest (including old growth!) but hadn't planned such a trip in advance and did not have gear necessary for something more strenuous.”
