Ruta de Cascadas
oriente · moderada · 2-3 días
San Carlos, San Rafael and San Luis form one of Antioquia's waterfall-richest corners: over 60 falls, natural pools and mountain trails. San Carlos offers canyoning, tubing and birdwatching (the area records more than 370 bird species), plus a hike up to Piedra del Tabor, Antioquia's largest rock. San Rafael adds swimming holes like El Arenal, Guatapé and Bizcocho, with crystal-clear water surrounded by forest. About three hours from Medellín, it's a multi-day, laid-back adventure.
