CITARÁ CLIFFS

Thanks for reading again, I have not stop traveling arround Colombia and for this new post, I find out some photos of my most recent trip in the southwestern of Antioquia (state) in Colombia, also, de department of the very city known as Medellín. In this trip, I travel from this city about 160km.  In time, takes about 3 hours’ drive this distance because the hard ways of this country, remember that three arms of the Andes Mountains cross this land, and this is what we are going to talk about.

(Photo taken from the hillside of the most higest level of Citará Cliffs, bellow you will find some pics of this side looking from 100km far and more)

Ciudad Bolivar is a municipality located from the main city (Medellín- Capital) at 3 hours in a very hard but beautiful drive (landscapes) through the mountains, and when I say this, please stop thinking that you´ll probably find Tarzan here.

Once we are here, we are to trip about 35 minutes to a place that locals call “Corregimiento” that is a little town near the Main-Town.  After this time above dirt road, we get the FARALLONES “Valley” (for say “Corregimiento” in some way) and here, you will have to look up to the marvelous mountain in front of you, you won’t believe but his top has about 4008maslv, and get the top is possible asking for a man named Ivan Solis, this guy can take you to the top in three days. 

(This pic was taken at 86 kilometers from the place I am talking about in this post, You can see the majestic of the Cliffs over the big Colombian mountains)

The state history says that in the 90`s there was an airplane flying from Uraba to some town in the southwestern of the department when suddenly crashed against the top of this very long chain of mountains (about 120km of the occidental Andes Mountain`s arm) and for sure, he is going to you the crashed airplane (tail) just finishing the climb.

For this trip, I did not planned to climb, but after met this guy, you be sure that my next photos will be over there.

(I shoot this pic even more far than the first one, believe when I say that you an continue yor trip without stop and look at this landscape for long long time) 

Oh! I have some info about visitors, there was a guy (Ivan says) that came from EU and said that this is most exciting that Colorado Canon.

Well, believe this is up to you, and remember that this is not a blog for tourist, but for travelers.

(This is the higest level of the Cliffs)

HAVE A NICE TRIP!

Sense perceptions:

Smells coffee

Look at the landscapes

Meet other travelers (the Farallones valley is very very small, but when I went there I found a film production team of NEXPRESSO recording a coffee commercial)

Your skin will be ok, temperature is about 18- 22C  (not at the top for sure)

And You will hear, the weather.
