The Cueva del Esplendor is a must-see in the area of Jardín, Antioquia. It houses a fantastic waterfall, which you can see from inside the cave, and that generates a particular effect that combines the waterfall, the light, the rocks, and the surrounding vegetation.
The hike to the cave is done along a well-marked trail in the mountainous and rural landscape that Jardín offers. To save energy since the hike requires good physical condition, some people make a first stretch to the Alto de Las Flores in a vehicle or on horseback and start from there.
The trail is on private property and an access fee is charged.

Highlights include an impressive waterfall, stunning views, and a generally easy trail. Challenges noted are a long uphill start and muddy, steep sections. Reviewers recommend using a tuktuk and bringing water and snacks.

Definitely recommend to get there by tuktuk (40.000 pesos) because the way up is long and not so interesting. The waterfall is impressive!
You have to wait a long time to get a guide to let you in, that's annoying, we waited 45 minutes ...
