The wetland and the majestic ruins

Departing from La Juana heading east, we will take the road that leads to the wetland ecosystem, where we will enter the native forest, which is bordered on one side by pine plantations. There we can feel the contrast between an artificial forest, practically a green desert, and, on the other side, a native forest, where the sounds of the wildlife it shelters abound. After crossing this natural trail, we will take the path that will lead us to the ruins of an old cement factory, a place full of mystery and charm, which has been the setting for high-level musical cultural events. Along this route, we can enjoy a beautiful panorama of the city of Manizales among the lovely bluish mountains that surround the place.
