First of all, it's a bit tricky to get to. While Waze does a decent job, if you miss the exit from the paved road you can spend several hours finding your way back. The owner said they're working on improving signage and that would be really helpful. You take a zipline to cross the canyon and then hike down to the water fall. You can't swim but you'll get 100% soaked through and through from the spray at the base. You can obviously elect how far down you want to go and stay dryer, but a bit of the experience is to be real close. Going back up the steep slope is the hard part, especially if your pants and shoes are wet. Then you cross the canyon back again on another zipline that will bring you back lower than where you took the first zipline. Then another 30 min back to the car on a steep path.

It has everything that little kids like... attractions, swimmingpool and even a little farm. the park is pretty big but does not have a lot of real attractions. I was with my girlfriend there and we pretty quickly finished with walking around. the food is good, the live show funny if you understand it. all in all a family park instead of a allround park. You got kids? GO! You got a dog, a backpack and a bottle of beer? Stay on the streets! ;-)

The little park in the main square of Marinilla, located just in front of the church, seems to be the hub of the town. Cafes and shops line the square. The park offers welcome shade and is a nice space to sit a few minutes and shelter from the sun. Just passing through on the way to Gutape, this was a welcome break and an interesting place to stop a few minutes.

Salimos de Medellin hacia el oriente antioqueño en busca de un lugar donde almorzar y disfrutar del paisaje de esa zona, pasamos el Tequendamita en donde se ve desde la carretera una cascada natural, mas adelante en el alto se divisa el municipio y los cultivos de flores que son la principal fuente de empleo y desarrollo de la region, el parque es realmente un lugar bien cuidado, donde se reunen personas de todas las edades, varios parqueaderos se ubican a pocas cuadras, en el parque hay varios restaurantes y cafeterias sin embargo hay uno en el que una deliciosa torta batida es vendida por cantidades, es algo muy famoso, en el centro del parque el imponente Bolivar renombra su fuerza y da ese toque de libertad al pueblo.

A wonderfully quaint church surrounded by all the culture, activities and genuine people of this pueblo. A Sunday misa followed by almuerzo at a quaint restaurant in the town square makes a visit to Iglesia San Antonio a "don't miss it" experience!

Located in "Alto de las Palmas" with the best weather surrounding Medellin you can find Plaza Pakita.
Inside a warehouse you will find a magical world where there is food, wine, decoration stores, a playground and even a bookstore.
You can sit inside or outside and there are 20 different options (restaurants) to choose from.
Very clever idea and a cool place to spend the afternoon of catch a bite to eat.
