Detailed itinerary

1) After being picked up from your place, we'll head to the enchanting east side of Medellín towards a little town called La Ceja (Eyebrow). We'll explore the authentic culture of Antioquia on this town, a town that has retained its traditional way of life, untouched by the influences of modern urbanization. This town, mostly colonized by Europeans, is a melting pot of cultures and traditions. Observe the local community as they go about their daily lives, speaking with one another in the streets, and discover the unique customs and practices that have been passed down through generations. Join us as we delve into the rich cultural heritage of Antioquia and gain an insight into the real Colombia.

2) After exploring La Ceja Town, our next stop is our main highlight! This is where we´re going to have our most incredible experience full of adrenaline, taking the highest and longest zipline of all Colombia, 1000 feet high and 2200 feet long, where you can see up to 5 waterfalls one after the other until we get to the other side of the mountain and then we´ll have a high-level Trek to the most stunning waterfall of all, the jump of the Ox, we´ll go right to its base where we can feel all of its power and after climbing a Ferrata Trail (Optional) beside the waterfall, something out of this world!

*This activity is for people who weight less than 100 Kg (weight limit for the zipline) and good fitness condition required, since we have to trek down the mountain to the waterfall through natural paths for approximately 35-40 minutes, and back up!

But is definitely worth the experience!
