About This Tour
A private tour into Parque Arvi, a large nature reserve above Medellin with lakes, waterfalls, and forest trails, reached by riding the city's real Metrocable and Arvi cable-car lines. Parque Arvi shows a genuinely different side of Medellin: real cloud-forest nature just a cable-car ride from the city center. Your private guide increases your chances of spotting local birdlife along the trails.
Parque Arví sits on the eastern slopes of the Aburrá Valley and covers roughly 16,000 hectares, of which about 1,760 are natural forest according to published figures. It is also an archaeological site: sections of pre-Hispanic roads, platforms and water works survive, including the so-called Camino de Cieza de León, which may be more than 1,500 years old.
The way up is part of the experience. Metrocable Line L, from Santo Domingo Savio station to the park, began service in February 2010 as the system's first line aimed at tourism, rising over forest.
On the trails your guide can point out birds and plants, and talk about how the park protects the water and air of the valley below.
