Middle Magdalena

Craving adventure or relaxation? The Magdalena Medio has it all! This stunning region boasts emerald rivers winding wild through golden valleys. Hike lush rainforests, encounter cascading waterfalls, and explore delightful villages. And if you are looking for a real Safari experience, Hacienda Nápoles is waiting for you!

Puerto Triunfo

Temperature: 34°C (93°F)

Distance: 4 h 20 min (186 km - 116 miles)

Its privileged location on the Magdalena, as its main park is next to the river, is the ideal place for the practice of all kinds of water sports. It is also a destination rich in fauna and flora, with tourist attractions and the best hotel service, recognized for its quality and kindness when visiting this magical municipality.

Places to visit:

Hacienda Nápoles Theme Park

Listed as one of the best safari parks in the world, it has not only wildlife sightings but also a spectacular water park.

Cocorná Train Station

Formerly a stop of the extinct Antioquia Railway, it is now a sustainable tourism destination and a sanctuary for nature.
Its river is navigable and there you can experience the best water activities, as well as live a river turtle conservation experience or even witness their release.

Colombian Santorini

The Greek island of Santorini was the inspiration for the architecture of this village, located in Doradal (near Puerto Triunfo). Its location, as a transit between one attraction and another in the area, makes it an easy, short, but obligatory visit.

Río Claro Nature Reserve

Temperature: 27°C (81°F)

Distance: 3 h 45 min (150 km - 93 miles)

It is not a municipality as such but, given its tourist importance, it deserves special attention.

Its main attraction is the Río Claro Canyon reserve, where you can practice rafting, canopy, speleology, vía ferrata, hikking, climbing and bird and monkey watching.

Places to visit:

Caiman Mouth

Imposing karst wall, embraced by the tropical rainforest. Rows of stalactites and stalagmites that look like the teeth of an antediluvian lizard.

Marble Beach

Majestic thousand-year-old marble base that forms the bottom and bank of the river. Here, the rock has been wonderfully polished by the constant work of water over time.

Las Dantas

A place characterized by its gigantic marble stones, carved by the water and anchored perhaps by a geological landslide in the middle of the river.
Megaliths that seem to emerge to allow themselves to be shaped by the force of the currents and invite us to listen to the dialogue that is established between them and the river.

Temple of Time

A thousand-year-old fossil cave, fantastically prayed by multiple geological precipitations that continuously form stalactites and stalagmites.
These configurations, created by water and its minerals, have taken approximately a million years to form.
