Salto del Buey: Zipline and Hiking
About this adventure
We're inviting you back to this imposing waterfall, to fly the zipline twice and enjoy a beautiful landscape!
Salto del Río Buey lies on the border between La Ceja and Abejorral, in the Colmenas area, where the Buey river meets the Piedras river to form a stunning drop of about 90 meters, in the largest waterfall zone in Antioquia.
This time we'll ride the zipline at Ecoparque Los Saltos, a unique experience, followed by a short hike to the foot of the waterfall. Our guides will take you through primary and secondary forest to the falls, a place to feel the energy of nature and disconnect.
It's home to the highest zipline in Antioquia: 330 m high and 1,350 m long in two runs, connecting two areas (El Guaico in Abejorral and San Rafael in La Ceja). It offers an amazing view of the great canyon and its waterfalls: more than fun, a moment of contemplation and connection with nature.
