Top Parks in Medellin

Don't skip the food carts nearby! I tried some local street food that was honestly better than some restaurants and super inexpensive.

Wear comfortable shoes – the paths can be uneven, and you want to explore without worrying about sore feet later on.

Keep an eye out for free events on the park's social media; I stumbled upon an awesome live music session by chance.

Don't forget your camera! There are so many Instagram-worthy spots here. I missed a few because I didn’t think to capture them when I was exploring.

I suggest checking the weather before you go. It can rain out of nowhere, so keeping an eye on the forecast saves you from getting soaked!

I think it’s a great idea to wear comfy shoes. The paths can get a little uneven, and you’ll want to stroll around without any pain.

Don’t forget your camera! The views along the river and the parks are stunning, and I regret not capturing more moments when I was there.

Make sure to take a bike ride along the river! I rented one at a kiosk for just a few bucks, and it was such a fun way to see more of the area.

My advice is to visit in the early morning around 8 AM when the park is less crowded and the weather is nice. You’ll enjoy a peaceful stroll and great photo ops.

Wear comfortable shoes. I did a lot of walking and my feet were sore by the end of the day. Flip-flops won’t cut it here.

Look for discounts online before you go. I saved a bit by checking for promo codes, and it helped me splurge on a nicer meal afterwards!

Keep an eye on your belongings. I thought I was safe in the park, but I noticed some folks seemed a bit shady. Looks like prevention is key for a hassle-free day.
