Valledupar - Rio Guatapurí
The Rio Guatapuri runs parallel to Valledupar along the cities northern border, and every day locals and travelers swing by to relax in its cool water. Be aware, the current can be fast moving, and while you may see locals jumping from the bridge overhead, it is not recommended.

While you will be sure to find people swimming and relaxing beside the Rio Guatapuri each day, Sundays see hundreds of families turn out to spend the day. Depending on what you are looking for this can be a good thing or bad thing. There is plenty of delicious food and fresh juice to be had, but you may have a hard time staking out a good place for yourself.
To reach the river, you can catch any bus that says universidad, or a cab from most anywhere in the city for 4.000 to 5.000 COP.
