Caño Piedra

A stream and waterfall route on the west side of town, with natural swimming pools. It makes a relaxed half-day alternative to the Caño Cristales.

The Caño Piedra lies on the west bank of the Guayabero River and can be reached by rural roads. It has a series of small waterfalls and natural swimming pools, surrounded by tropical grassland and open woodland. The area suits swimming, birdwatching and experiencing life on a local farm. Trips usually last half a day and are arranged by local guides or farms. It is less crowded and less strenuous than the Caño Cristales, and visitors can also ride horses to get there. Whether the site is open and the prices are set by local travel agencies and the community.
