The Arvi Park, also known as the Regional Ecotourism Park, is a natural wealth of Medellin. It was declared a protective forest reserve in 1970. It is a public space that offers a wide variety of experiences for all tastes. From there, you manage to make tangible the limits of the urban and the rural within the same city.

It has 16,000 hectares, 1,760 of which are in an impeccable state of natural forests, and it is equipped with 54 kilometers of trails to facilitate movement and walks for visitors.

Arvi Park is located in the northeast of Medellin, 30 kilometers from the city center, in the township of Santa Elena and the municipality of Guarne. There are many ways to get there, however, the one we recommend the most and feel that it is part of the experience, is through the Arvi
