AND THE ANTIOQUENIAN
TRADITIONS
A cable car that within 10 minutes, allows you to experience a temperature change between approximately 16 Cº (60.8 F) to 28 Cº (82.4 F).
Deep within the Antioquian Mountains are tucked away the Guadalupe falls with more than 250mts (820ft) in altitude.
A cable car built in the 1950s takes you to a place from where you can enjoy a landscape loaded with stories and sensations.
This two day route takes you to meet traditional towns in Antioquia like Carolina, with colonial architecture full of history, and then ending the day in Angostura, another small town to the north of Antioquia full of traditions and not barely touched by tourists until now. From there we will spend the night in a colonial traditional house built 140 years ago. Step by step we will get to see old sugar cane mills where they produce one of the main products of the local agro-industry and a national sweetener, Panela.
The next day we have the chance to be delighted by a premium cup of local coffee, and see where the most dedicated and detailed processes of coffee cultivation are born. La Teresita Special Coffee Origin, is a perfect example and demonstrates why Colombian coffee is the best of the world!
