EOH โ†’ IBE

Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a front-row seat to the snow-capped peaks of the Central Cordillera, including the majestic Nevado del Ruiz and Nevado del Tolima, which are the highlights of this route.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
โ„๏ธ

Nevado del Ruiz

The most prominent snow-capped volcano in the region, often venting steam, visible during the mid-flight cruise.

๐ŸŒ‹

Nevado del Tolima

A stunning, perfectly conical volcanic peak that dominates the horizon as you approach Ibague.

โ˜•

Coffee Cultural Landscape

Intricate patterns of coffee plantations and wax palms on the steep hillsides of the Caldas and Tolima border.

๐Ÿœ๏ธ

Combeima Canyon

A deep, dramatic river canyon carved into the mountains, visible during the final approach into Perales Airport.

Book an early morning flight (before 9:00 AM) to avoid the heavy cloud cover that typically obscures the volcanoes by midday. Sit behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the volcanic peaks against the horizon.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Aburrรก Valley Skyline

Aerial view of Medellin's dense urban layout and the El Poblado district immediately after takeoff from EOH.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Eastern Ridge Traverse

Close-up views of the rugged green mountains flanking the eastern side of the valley as the plane climbs.

๐ŸŒŠ

Magdalena River Basin

Distant views of the vast Magdalena River valley shimmering in the heat of the tropical lowlands to the east.

๐ŸŒณ

Tolima Foothills

Lush tropical forests and agricultural patches covering the lower slopes as you descend into the Ibague region.

Sit on the left if you want the best views of Medellin's cityscape during the initial climb. For photography, use a fast shutter speed to capture the rapidly passing ridges of the Central Cordillera.
