Medellín is a city in Colombia.

The northern neighbourhoods tend to be poorer than the southern ones.

Hitching Out

South towards Caldas, Cali, Pereira, Manizales

From last metro station Itagüi it is a 3 min walk to the autopista del sur (towards Caldas). From there either walk 10 min to a not-that-perfect gas station or take a bus/hitch further down. About 4 km further south the highway to Cali, Pereira, Manizales begins. If you want a gas station, walk 1–2 km uphill. No safety problems here.

North to Cartagena

From the last metro station Bello you are on the road towards Cartagena.
