Ibagué and its beautiful surrounding countryside offer some unique and beautiful weekend excursions. There are two national parks within a very short distance of the city which offer hiking, horse riding, swimming, camping, hot springs, waterfalls and much more.
The staff of Learn More Than Spanish try very hard to make sure you make the most of your leisure time while you are here. Their extensive knowledge and experience of the area is at your disposal.
You can explore with our free Activity Club in the afternoons. We also encourage and help students to plan a wide range of outdoor activities and weekend trips away e.g. Zona Cafeterra, city visits, not to mention hiking, horse riding and rafting.
The weekends are a great time to get out and explore the beautiful natural surrounding area. There is a wide range of activities all easily done in a day or a weekend.
Because of Ibagué's central location, it is very easy to take some time off and go and visit the many and varied things that Colombia has to offer.
I never had a dull moment in Ibagué, there was always something to do or see. Seeing and doing the extra activities really made the experience more than just studying.
Colombia is so beautiful that spending time seeing it is, I would almost say, essential for students. Getting out in the weekends was all part of it.
Colombia's Pacific coast has one of the highest levels of rainfall in the world, with the south west often drenched by more than 200 in (510 cm) of rain per year.
The highest point in Colombia is Pico Cristobal Colon, 19,020 feet (5,800 meters).
