Piedra Del Penol

3h
Admission ticket not included

This is a 220 metre high monolith located between the municipalities of Guatapé and El Peñol, which has 702 steps to the top. A marvel of nature, from where you can see the panoramic view of the reservoir of more than 2,200 hectares, consisting of several islands in green tones surrounded by calm waters that invite contemplation and rest. From there you can see the old location of the village, since a cross has been located that emerges from the water and serves as a historical symbol.

Guatape

We'll get to the Esplanade. A nine hundred metre walk that surrounds the reservoir, from where visitors embark on boats, boats, slabs, sailboats and jet skis to enjoy the reservoir.

Plazoleta de los Zocalos (Pass by)

It was built to commemorate two hundred years since the founding of the municipality. Adorned by coloured steps in which the technique of the skirting board stands out, it is an ideal square to talk, enjoy the gastronomy of the place, take beautiful photographs and buy crafts.
