Our private world-class transportation is waiting for you, and 1.5 hours later, take a deep breath and admire the lush nature of Salto del Buey before climbing to the base of the giant waterfall, which is 100 meters in height.

You can’t imagine how grand this place is until you’re there. Salto del Buey is one of the biggest waterfalls in Antioquia. The view is breathtaking: see a free-fall flow of water falling from the mountains at an altitude of 80 meters.

In this spectacular natural attraction, you can enjoy the fauna and flora, go bird watching, and practice extreme sports such as flying in the world’s highest canopy, climbing a climbing wall, hiking, or watching the sunset in a hammock.

The path to paradise was never so exciting. Salto del Buey Canyon is the portal to heaven, but the way up to it is an adventure in itself. In this place, the Buey River merges with the Piedras River, forming a spectacular canyon with a plethora of cascades and waterfalls. Hiking and climbing while admiring the astonishing beauty of the Salto del Bueno landscape is the ideal scenario to live an extreme adventure as a Medellin VIP visitor. 

You can start hiking at the bottom of the waterfall and work your way up. The walk down takes about 1.5 hours, or 30 to 40 minutes. The return walk is a little shorter and lower, allowing you to cross the canyon and get the best view of the numerous waterfalls before arriving at the largest. But you don’t hike to heaven unless you enjoy your reward, so take a break and relax in a hammock in the middle of the flying fox cable, sipping a local beer and admiring the breathtaking sunset over the canyon and surrounding mountains.

As mentioned before, Salto del Buey is the home of the highest zipline in Colombia, at 330 meters in height and 700 meters in distance. It is not only the ideal location for extreme adventures, but it is also the best place to see a large number of birds late in the afternoon, a sublime way to end an incredible day.
