Tour Of The North Of Antioquia: San Pedro, Entrerríos And Santa Rosa

Our journey begins bright and early as we set off on a Northern Antioquia tour, leaving the city's hustle behind to immerse ourselves in the lush scenery and peacefulness of the Antioquian countryside. Our first stop is the municipality of San Pedro de los Milagros, where we will stroll through its cobblestone streets, admire the traditional adobe houses, and visit its majestic colonial church, a significant historical and architectural landmark in the region. This initial experience will offer insights into the religious and cultural essence that defines the towns of northern Antioquia. Our journey continues to Entrerríos, often referred to as the "Colombian Switzerland," a place enveloped by expansive natural landscapes that invite serenity and reflection. Here, we will have the opportunity to explore the town, revel in its tranquil ambiance, and purchase local specialties, such as the well-known cuca cookies, a distinctive taste emblematic of Northern Antioquia.

Next, we will visit an interactive rural farm, where we get an authentic taste of rural life in Antioquia. Here, you can engage with the farm animals, feed them, and gain firsthand knowledge of the traditional cheesemaking process, a craft passed down through generations. Surrounded by lush landscapes, we will savor an outdoor breakfast and lunch, featuring typical Colombian dishes—an ideal setting for families, particularly those with children.

Our tour then proceeds to Santa Rosa de Osos, famed as the “town with the most churches in Colombia”. During our time here, we will visit several of these religious structures, appreciating their architectural beauty, heritage significance, and the rich history they embody, all while soaking in the town's local ambiance.

To round off the day, we will explore the Plaza del Río, a natural and educational area where you can interact with perchero horses and observe curious ostriches up close. This offers a unique, educational, and entertaining experience for all ages.
