Metrocable and Parque Arví Cloud Forest Tour
Twenty minutes of cable car above the city, then cool forest trails and a market at 8,200 feet.
The Metrocable to Arví is the best value view in Colombia and it happens to end in a cloud forest. You rise over the barrios of the northeast, watch the valley open under you, and step out into pine and oak forest that feels an hour's flight from the city you just left.
We add a guide who can actually name the plants and birds, a walk on the trails that are worth walking, and a stop at the market stalls for chorizo, arepas and hot chocolate before the ride back down.
