I went zip lining and climbing the water fall via feratta when I visited Medellin. It was my first trip with ecoventure and it turned out to be an incredible experience.Diego was my guide and he was wonderful. He taught me about the area and all of the different plants and fruit as we hiked to the zip line.Zip lining was amazing and very safe. You get a great view of the waterfall as you zip across the valley. It was a lot of fun.Then we hiked to the waterfall so you can feel the energy and power of it. It was very impressive. Afterwards we climbed the water fall.It looked difficult but it wasn’t. Diego made it an enjoyable experience and took a lot of photos. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a thrilling adventure.

We had an incredible adventure zip lining on Colombia's tallest and longest zip line, followed by a hike down to a massive waterfall. The views were breathtaking, and the zip line was pure adrenaline. The highlight was climbing the waterfall via a ferrata, which was both challenging and unforgettable.Fabian, our guide once again, made the experience even better! His energy, expertise, and fun personality added so much to the trip. If you’re looking for an epic adventure, this is a must-do, especially with Fabian as your guide!

The most asked question — and here’s the truth: Colombia is a tropical wild card. Forecasts? Forget it. Weather apps dream, but we adapt in real time, tracking clouds and chasing clear skies. In years of exploring Medellín and Colombia’s lush landscapes, only paragliding occasionally gets grounded — and even then, it’s a rare 3% chance. The adventure never stops, it just changes shape.
Usually for some experiences we recommend tring to book on week days, like Guatape ones, especially on holy weekends. The seasons in Colombia where some places could be very crowded are the holy week in april and part of the june and december-january months because school vacation.
