Fantastic sightseeing, beautiful gardens, interesting exhibits, good food... love this place! I have been there several times and it's always a great time. Rather than driving, take the cable car from La Mesa de los Santos. It's worth the small fee!
The canyon is beautiful if you can avoid the private theme park portion. Be prepared for hot weather in the base of the canyon. The vistas are great and there are many great walks to be had in the area.
This park has upper and lower sections connected by a cablecar ride taking a few minutes. We saw only the upper section for the panoramic views, with a restaurant and souvenir shops available, nicely landscaped observation area and plenty of parking. Not a long drive from central Bucaramanga over good roads. The mountains looked rather dry.
Went there to paraglide with group of friends from Bucaramanga landing next to the river and then one friend and I took out our packrafts and floated down the Rio Chicamocha about 7 miles to the first town, and hired a couple motortaxis to take us out to the main road (1 hour) to catch a bus. Pretty fun day.
Forget the Colorado Canyon! Instead, come and visit this awesome place in Colombia. Landscape is breathtaking, mountains are beyond beautiful and the weather is quite nice.Food court, parapente, pools, Museum ( not that nice), everything is in one place. And it also have the longest cable car in the world ( 6KM)!
This theme park has two areas, a waterpark and an area for extreme sports and interpretive attractions that explain the history of this region. Both areas are interesting, but the spectacular part is the view. It´s worth it to spend some time admiring the scenery in the water park, and it has been designed for that.
Nos agrada que te haya gustado la visita a nuestro Parque. Te esperamos de nuevo para que visites el Acuaparque Nacional del Chicamocha y puedas disfrutar de la frescura del agua y la inmensidad del cañón.
this is an awsome expereince. the gondola goes from one side of the canyon to the other. wonderful view 360 takes 25 minutes one way. our tour started on the one side and than went to the park. the park is surreal as it has a goat, ostricch area, giant swings dune buggies all at extra costs but very cheap by us standards. the monumnet onthe top of one hill is amazing. listen to thge narrative asnd look at the bronze statues. they look alive and in motion. take sun screen as the sun is intense at this altitude. it is a great surprise in columbia.
The beauty of this park is phenomenal. It's well worth the entry price and the crazy road and traffic to get there. We took the teleferico (cable car) ride to the other side and back agin. It's about a thirty minute ride each way and it doesn't stop at either end, but you can get off, eat lunch, shop, listen to music. It does slow, but it is helpful to have someone offer you a hand getting on and off..if you are old like me. There is a wonderful monument at the top. It lights up at night and is truly beautiful. The monument contains 35 characters who represent the revolution of the commoners at the town of Socorro. The central figure is a woman, who was later shot for her act of defiance. Higher than the monument is a 360 degree viewpoint with a spectacular view at sunset. Did I make it that high...no. But others in my group did. It was only later I discovered there was a little bus that would take you to the top. Don't miss this attraction! Too bad i can't give it 10 stars.
The best of the park is the view of the Chicamocha canyon, amazing mountains, so huge and impresive! For those not afraid to heights I recommend the aerial tramway which cross the canyon. I also recommend to hear the history told at the monument to santanderean culture, very interesting. In this park you will find very nice and extreme attractions.
