Itinerary

Stop 1

15 min

We’ll begin our journey with a scenic stop at the iconic Mirador de Las Palmas, one of the most stunning panoramic viewpoints overlooking Medellín. From this elevated spot, you'll witness the vastness of the Aburrá Valley and understand why the city is affectionately nicknamed the “Silver Cup” (La Tacita de Plata)—a poetic name that reflects how the city nestles perfectly within the surrounding mountains, sparkling like silver under the sun.

The view stretches for miles, showcasing the contrast between the lush green hills and the dense urban landscape below. It's a perfect moment to take breathtaking photos, breathe in the clean mountain air, and begin to connect with the natural beauty and urban spirit of Medellín.

This stop sets the tone for the unforgettable experience ahead.
Parque Arvi

3 hours Admission included

Just outside the hustle and bustle of Medellín lies an incredible natural reserve, a protected park teeming with lush vegetation, towering pine trees, and an abundance of wildlife. This magical place is alive with the sounds of birds, insects, and the gentle rustle of the wind — a sanctuary where butterflies flutter freely and quartz crystals glimmer beneath your feet. It’s the kind of spot where nature feels untouched and sacred.

Here, surrounded by this breathtaking landscape, we’ll embark on a horseback riding adventure. Our ride takes us along old colonial trails, through muddy paths, across gentle rivers, and deep into the rainforest. You’ll feel completely immersed in the natural world, riding through scenery that feels like something out of a dream. Whether you’re an experienced rider or a first-timer, this is an unforgettable experience for anyone who loves horses, nature, and authentic outdoor adventures.
