The cross was installed a few years ago by the Catholic Church, and you can hike up to its viewpoint for the best views of the city and surrounding areas.

Great little hike of about 700 metres. Takes a few hours (2-3) depending on your pace. Trail is walkable but quite rocky in places so wear appropriate footwear.

A place with a cool climate, to explore, meditate and admire nature, when you reach the top of the mountain you will find the viewpoint where you can spectacularly appreciate the panoramic view of the city of Matagalpa.

It is a beautiful place to meditate and connect with nature, or simply a place to enjoy calm and tranquility...

Going up to the Cerro is without a doubt a great experience. Hiking on this hill offers you a good interaction with nature, as well as a great view of the city.
