You step out of the van as the city hums below and a cool, valley wind pushes up the slope toward the mountaintop. The trail is short but purposeful — a steady 15-minute walk on a well-maintained path to the El Cristo monument, then a few more minutes to a ridge that lays the Aburrá Valley open like a living map.
