Your gate access code and room door code will be provided to you after your digital check-in is complete. Find the mini carriel bag on the kitchen counter — it contains the entrance gate opener. Keep it with you whenever entering or exiting.
Once you arrive at your room, use your 4-digit door code to open the door.
WiFi Network: Equilibrium — password provided after digital check-in.
Once in town, turn right on Calle 5 — look for the "Parqueadero" sign. At the end of the road turn right and you will see our entrance gate. Park in the space next to your cabin.
Take the bus via Bolombolo from Terminal del Sur, Medellín (~2.5–3 hrs). Ask the driver to stop at Montaña Parrilla Burger. Walk to the end of Calle 5 — entrance on the right.
A private taxi or van is highly recommended — only ~$2 more than the bus and much more comfortable. Cost: ~44,000 COP (~$11 USD). We can help coordinate.
