The Airplane Cave is the perfect place to have a fun day full of adventures with adrenaline. It is not just a cave; it is a place with various natural swimming holes, natural slides and caves. Some of the swimming ponds have crystalized water and offer you a neat setting to take pictures. At some parts the ponds are within the caves. The first thing you will feel is to be immersed in a forest crossed by a river and descend through it with ropes in an extreme way. At one place there is even a waterfall inside the cave. The Airplane Cave is not known by many tourists and therefore it seems to be like a magical virgin place.
In the Airplane Cave you can spend several hours to get to know all the interesting spots. The guide will show you everything and he also makes sure that you have a save experience. On the way back there is the possibility to stop in San Vicente de Chucurí, a beautiful town with a lot of history and economic importance.
