ITINERARY
For a day, explore the heart of Colombia in a new way, with your family, as a couple, beginners or experts, escape on a nature, sports, cultural and eco-responsible outing just outside Medellin. (transport included)
We welcome you to Venecia, one of the most beautiful villages of Antioquia. This place, still unknown from the tourists, is located at the foot of Cerro Tusa, where you’ll be immersed in lush jungle, waterfalls, coffee fields, indigenous history and sacred mountains…
The electrically-assisted mountain bike makes it possible to erase the inequalities of level in a group (families, couples, etc…). Thanks to the 5 levels of electric assistance, the most courageous will be able to use or not the minimum while the less accustomed will adjust the assistance to their suitability. You’ll be able to pedal long distances, exploring the usually demanding authentic trails without difficulty.
We will cycle along rivers, waterfalls, coffee plantations, traditional finca, mountain villages, and finish the tour with a snack and a swim at the Cerro Tusa Spring eco-hotel, where the pool has a breathtaking view of Cerro Tusa.
