Local knowledge for Manizales
Where to stay
Backpackers cluster along and just off Avenida Santander in the Zona Rosa toward Milan and Palermo, which is where the bars, the university crowd, and the cheap almuerzos are. The historic centre around Plaza de Bolivar is closer to the cathedral and the cable car but quieter after dark.
Getting around
- Nevado del Ruiz access depends on volcanic activity and can close with no notice. Confirm the park's status with an operator the day before rather than paying for a tour in advance.
- The Cable Aereo is public transport, not a tourist attraction, and costs a normal bus fare. It is the fastest way between the centre and the bus terminal, with the valley view thrown in.
- The thermal baths outside town are far cheaper if you take a public bus from the terminal rather than a hostel-arranged transfer, and they are quietest on weekday mornings.
When to go
Cheapest in May, June, September, and October. The Feria de Manizales in early January is the single most expensive week of the year and books out well in advance, followed by Semana Santa and the December holidays.
