Cerro de Nutibara is a hilltop park in Medellín, known for its city views, sculpture park and Pueblito Paisa, a replica of a traditional Antioquian village. Look for sculptures near the lower part of the hill, then visit the village square, church and shops at the top. Trees obscure some views along the paths, so head to the observation area for a clearer panorama. Visit in daylight, especially if you plan to explore the quieter trails.
