Distance: approx. 14 km

Difficulty: 4/5 (Difficult)

Location: Fredonia (1 hour 45 minutes from Medellin)

75.000 COP/person (2 person min.)

Route Details: On this hike, we trek from the town of Fredonia to the town of Venecia, while climbing the challenging Cerro Bravo along the way. We use dirt roads to get in and out of the towns- much of the trail is a narrow hiking trail through Andean forest, with some open parts that give us views of the mountain itself and the landscape below. If the clouds cooperate, the top of the mountain has spectacular views of green Antioquian landscape.
