[Mirador de Salento | Top of the adventure staircase with a panoramic view of the city and valley]

[Mirador de Salento | The top of the adventure stairs overlooking the city and valley] — Worth the breathless climb! A panoramic spot in Salento where spectacular views and rewards await — A long stone staircase stretches out from the end of Salento's main street, Calle Real. Beyond that is a panoramic view of the city and valley, wrapped in color and greenery. Mirador de Salento is a popular observation deck that captivates both locals and tourists as a spectacular spot overlooking the entire town and the Cocora Valley 🌿✨ ⸻ 📍 [Location] The top of Calle Real. It's a 15-20 minute walk from the city, and you'll need some physical strength to climb the stone steps, but it's more than worth it! 🕰️ [Viewing point] You can enjoy the view that changes depending on the time of day, from morning to dusk. The early morning is quiet and clear, and the dramatic sunset in the evening is the best 🌄 ⸻ ✨Recommended points • A spectacular view spot where you can see the cityscape of Salento, colorful roofs and the spreading mountains. • The scenery you can enjoy after the climb and the sense of accomplishment is the reward of the adventure 💪 • At the observation deck, there are plenty of cold juices and snacks sold by locals! Salpicón (fruit mix) is perfect for hydration 🍹 • It's perfect for taking photos, as well as taking a short break on a bench. ⸻ 🎒Tips and advice • The stone steps are long and sloping, so sneakers are recommended! Even if you're not good at exercise, it's OK if you climb slowly😊 • It's cool and easy to climb in the morning and evening, but the sun is strong during the day, so it's reassuring to have a hat and sunscreen☀️ • Most snacks at the observation deck are cash only, so it's convenient to have some coins • It can be windy, so it's a good idea to bring a thin jacket◎ ⸻ 🌟【How to enjoy it to the next level】 Starting from the observation deck, you can extend your walk to the greenway behind it (Mirador Alto de la Cruz) to find a quieter and more mysterious view🍃 ⸻ #Salento Observatory #Colombia #Salento #Absolutely Free Trip
