The "Path to the River" refers to a trail leading down from the farm to the Río Quindío. The Finca is located about 4 km (approx. 1 hour on foot or 20 minutes by car/Willy-Jeep) southwest of Salento. A crystal-clear river flows about 300 meters below the farm. A marked path leads through the coffee plantations and a bamboo forest directly to the water. Alternative return route: Hikers often use a flat path along the river, which leads to the village of Boquía in about 35 minutes. From there, you can conveniently take a bus back to Salento to avoid the steep uphill return to the farm. In addition to river access, the farm offers guided tours.
