    There are “two” sides of the Park, the paid one which many people visit and it’s fine; clean, organized but small.. , and the Free open area which has a lot more “Charcos” and you can do pretty much whatever you want: camp, make a fire place, bring your pets, etc.

    Great park on the edge of Envigado and easy to get to from Medellín. Plants and rivers all over the place. Recommended for anyone who wants a quick break from the city for a day. Good spot for a picnic and other activities like that. Metro and bus to arrive, I wouldn’t recommend walking up there.

    Had to leave our alcohol at the gate but aside from that, this is the nicer of the two Salado parks, ziplining, epic views and wildlife. we saw iguanas and toucans for example. Excellent bus connections from town and the tiny hamlet next door gives a good insight into proper Colombian culture.

    Beautiful nature park. Very family friendly and safe area. Giant rock wall for the young kids and zip line for the older ones.

    Really great place to get into nature, and only 5 minutes outside of Medellín. Very well maintained paths and tracks with lots to do. Even some wildlife roaming around the park!

    Gorgeous, natural environment to relax. Highly recommended for group gatherings. Plenty of places to sit and relax with a group. Get in the water to cool off.

    Incredible. So chill and relaxing and there's so much to do here. Will say, though, that there are way better lakes downstream, completely for free. Would recommend those too

    Beautiful little creekside park. Great place to go for the day with the family to hike around the valley and play in the creek.

  • 4/5 Diana C. 3 years ago on Google
    December review, this year the even is more organized there’s one way in and one way out.... now the lines were crazy!!! At least 2 hour wait ! But there’s a reason once ppl go in they will take for ever to come out because everyone is trying to take pics with every statue of lights so it’s impossible to take pics!!! , it was beautiful tho 💗

    I attended a birthday party and I was surprised by the beauty of the place. It's called "Aula Ambiental Nora Patricia Cano Mesa" a perfect place for meetings and events breathing fresh air but only 15 minutes from downtown Envigado.

  • 1/5 Alberto Soliz (. 2 years ago on Google
    The parking lot guy charged 12mil pesos forn4 mins of walking t the entrance and back bc the park was closed. Not fair! It's not about the money rather principle and they always say due to cameras. I dont fall for that stupid system excuse... not fair! Customer beware and regardless of weather of the parking lot belongs or not to the park they work conjunction together...

  • 3/5 Mike W. 1 year ago on Google

    Awesome park, lots of fresh air, creeks, and paths for mtb or hiking, and if you feel like it the small ponds will refresh the soul and spirit!

  • 5/5 Lee L. 4 years ago on Google
    An ecology park that has an Stream therethrough too to unwind and paddle. There are areas for families to have BBQs and picnics. These are like Wooden Elevated Huts. Has an Aerial Runway and Climbing Wall. Wear good Footwear with grips as some of the Pathways are loose!

    Visited this park on a Wednesday. It was very quiet, there was only a school class present for an educational excursion. The park is beautifully set up and has a rich variety of plants and flowers. It has a number of viewpoints. The creek that runs through the park is spotless and you are allowed to cool off in it. It is located just outside Medellin and is easy to reach by public transport: we took the skytrain to Envigado station and from there (on the east side of the station) a bus leaves every ten minutes to the park. An ideal place to escape from the city and imagine yourself in the middle of nature.

    What a beautiful environment. The sound of the river the cooler temperatures and all that green. How is this for dreamy? Walking barefoot on the stream with butterflies flittering around my legs. I love Medellín.

  • 5/5 viajer m. 3 years ago on Google
    Fantastic place, there are a few good restaurants and at least one place to get ice cream and coffee. There are some places to seat and lay down and I believe there is free wifi. It is a very safe place to relax. I should mention that at the moment of writing this review, there is Christmas lighting until the end of January therefore the park has some restriction and fences all over the place.

  • 5/5 Santiago G. 3 years ago on Google
    The architecture is amazing, finally a memorable park in the center of this city. The places to eat are amazing and the ambience itself makes you wanna stay a very long time, it's very amazing how the managed to make all those different spaces (gardens, pavement, river) to convolute together. Is a very good space to pass the day.

    Fun spot for the kids to hangout and play. Walking distance from my favorite barber shop in Medellin ( Los Clásicos ) Many shops nearby for drinks/snacks/ice cream. Prepare to spend a few hours here as the kids will never want to leave.

    (Translated by Google) A must to visit in Medellín, you can make many plans with friends, family, couple, there are spaces for children, I recommend a picnic, rollerblading.
