Day 1
RIO CLARO CANYON NATURAL RESERVE
This refuge of tropical vegetation characterized by humid forests that grow on limestone rocks in the marble deposits of the Río Claro del Norte region, is one of the most important and beautiful reserves in the center of the country. It is a place that enjoys a great biodiversity in its flora and fauna, and an indescribable beauty reflected in the transparency of the river, which for millions of years made its way through the high stone hills, to form the most splendid Marble Canyon that exists in Colombia.
PURPOSE: To share the magic and strength of biodiversity to sensitize, educate and make visitors aware of the biological importance of conserving natural redoubts.
LOCATION: The Río Claro Canyon Nature Reserve is located on the southeastern slope of the central mountain range in the department of Antioquia, Colombia, sharing boundaries between the municipalities of Puerto Triunfo, San Luis and Sonsón, 40 kilometers from the source of the river, in Alto del Tigre and Alto de la Osa (Sonsón) and 57 kilometers from the mouth of the Magdalena River.
The reserve is located 3 hours from Medellín on the Medellín-Bogotá highway at kilometer 152 and 5 hours from Bogotá at kilometer 264.
Brief description of the walk: The main attraction of this activity is river hiking and the possibility of caving (cavern exploration, these are of karstic origin, that is, they are formed by water in calcareous rocks, this process is very slow and can last millions of years, within these formations are stalactites and stalagmites; the former are formed by drops of water that drag calcium carbonates and other minerals in their path, while the latter are formed from the soil when these deposits converge, both formations are very fragile, so you have to be very careful not to touch them); This activity takes place in a territory that includes the municipalities of Sonsón, San Luis and Puerto Triunfo, a place that is very close to Doradal.
