Medellín Full-Day Zipline, ATV & Horseback Adventure — Private Combo Tour
Spend a full day swapping Medellín’s skyline for Andean ridgelines on a private combo tour: zipline over canopy, roar across dirt tracks by ATV, and unwind on horseback. This private 10-hour experience includes hotel pickup, certified guides, and all gear.
The Experience
Before You Go
Respect the 100 kg weight limit
Operators enforce a 100 kg (220 lb) maximum for safety on ziplines and some equipment—check limits before booking.
Wear secure closed-toe shoes
ATV and horseback sections need sturdy footwear and long pants to protect against mud, heat, and brush.
Hydrate for altitude
Medellín sits around 1,500 m—drink water before and during the day to offset mild altitude effects and long activity hours.
Pack a light rain layer
Afternoons can be wet—bring a compact waterproof to stay comfortable without adding bulk to your kit.

Conservation Note
Stick to marked routes and avoid feeding wildlife; local operators emphasize low-impact practices to protect erosion-prone slopes and water sources.
These hills were historically part of smallholder agriculture and mule tracks linking villages to Medellín; many trails follow old farm roads and water channels.
