Transfer from Pereira Matecaña Airport to Santa Rosa de Cabal’s Hot Springs

The journey from Pereira Matecaña Airport takes you across the César Gaviria Trujillo Viaduct, connecting Pereira and Dosquebradas, before heading southeast toward Santa Rosa de Cabal. The landscape shifts from the airport's urban surroundings through town streets to increasingly mountainous terrain, with the final 12 kilometres becoming unpaved and winding as you climb toward the Ecoparque Termal location in Vereda San Ramón. The route passes near the spectacular Cascada Santa Helena, a 95-metre waterfall visible in the area.

Your driver will meet you at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of your landing terminal, holding a name sign, and will monitor your flight in real time for any delays or terminal changes. The 45-minute drive is most predictable during off-peak hours; morning departures from the airport typically avoid congestion through Dosquebradas. Plan to arrive at the springs entrance with time to spare, as the final mountain section with sharp turns requires careful driving, and the parking lot sits opposite the main gate with a short walk down to the thermal pools.

Public transport from Pereira Matecaña requires multiple transfers—no direct buses serve the airport—making the journey fragmented and time-consuming. Taxis offer a faster alternative but lack the reliability of a pre-booked private transfer; availability is unpredictable at peak times, and drivers unfamiliar with the mountain road to the springs may take longer or charge premium rates. A confirmed transfer eliminates these friction points and ensures you arrive refreshed and ready to enjoy the hot springs.
