Guatape colorfull town

An authentic little village paisa, a site that due to its uniqueness has become one of the must-see destinations for those who travel to Antioquia, There are 740 steps to access the top of the imposing monolith Peñol de Guatapé or Piedra del Peñol, 220 meters high,a strategic place for those who climb to its summit, as they achieve the best panoramic view of the region and the reservoir of more than 2 200 hectares.

Enjoy the view of a landscape of several lakes, emerald green, that cross diverse mountains and islands. During the ascent you will be able to know which step you are on, because they are all listed. To complement this trip, a good idea is to plan for the El Peñol-Guatapé reservoir, where you can opt for water sports or boat rides or jet skis and make a tour between islands and mountains to see the fauna and flora of the region , to contemplate the rock from different angles and to sail over what was the old town of Peñol (founded in 1714), the sign: a metallic cross that emerges from the water.
