Guatapé is famous around the world as a must-see destination. The huge El Peñol rock towers over the magnificent man-made reservoir allowing the eye to see for miles and miles. However, make sure you bring you walking boots as it’s one hell of a climb to the top. Zig zagging staircases make their way up to the top with tourists trudging all the way up. After you can take a well-deserved rest aboard one of the many ferry boats that can take your around the lakes and see the beautiful islands and amazing houses that dot the shoreline. Be sure not to miss the little town that’s filled with cute and colourful hoses that are traditional across the region.
