Rafting in Quimbaya

At 9 am, we'll meet at the central Bolivar Square in Quimbaya, where a jeep will take us to the La Vieja river, the natural border between Quindío and the Cauca Valley.

Upon arrival, we'll put on our life jackets and you'll choose the type of watercraft for navigating the rapids. You can opt to raft with several people or tackle the rapids alone using a kayak or tube.

We'll paddle along the river, enjoying the lush vegetation of Colombian nature. At around 12 noon, we'll stop at a local farm on the riverbanks for a typical lunch, featuring sudado montañero, a chicken and potato stew served with boiled egg and rice, accompanied by fresh-squeezed lemonade.

After lunch, we'll continue paddling down the rapids until we reach the pier, where we'll disembark and take the jeep back to the starting point.

Duration

The total duration of the activity will be 2-5 hours, depending on the river's current conditions.
