Parque Juan Curi – Waterfalls and natural pools in Santander, Colombia

One of the stops we made was the Juan Curi park, famous for its waterfalls and natural pools where you can take a dip.

The entry price to the park is between 15,000 COP (about 4.5$) to visit the lower waterfall and 30,000 COP (about 9$) to visit both the lower and upper waterfall. We paid for the latter and decided to hike to the highest point first, where our guide Wilson was waiting for us. He pointed out where we could take a dip in the natural pools and which ones were off limits.

The water was quite cold but after a few minutes we got used to it. Furthermore, we were the only ones who hiked to the upper waterfall, so we had the pools all for ourselves. 

After this first stop, we had to hike back down to a certain point, from where we followed the path to the right to arrive at the lower waterfall. Be aware that there are two paths you can follow, but both arrive at the same destination.The lower waterfall and its pool are bigger than the upper one, but there were also more people. Even so, the views of the waterfall and surrounding areas are amazing, and we recommend visiting both and enjoy a dip in both pools.
