AN SPLENDOROUS WATERFALL
This trip takes us to “The Prettiest Town of Antioquia ”, a colonial quaint town established during Antioqueño Colonization, a moment where the famous Suroeste Region (Southwest of Antioquia) developed into an important coffee region of Colombia. Travel to this landscape dotted with coffee plantations, imposing mountains, historical architecture and fascinating local characters willing to have a friendly chat with you.
In this trip you will truly dive into Colombia’s signature coffee culture, visit the famous Cueva del Esplendor – a natural beauty carved by the power of water thundering against rocks hiding in the Andean Cloud Forest – and discover all the many features Jardín is willing to share with you.
