Ansermanuevo is a little peaceful village. Hotel Plaza (single room: 18.000 pesos as of 2012)is less than 100m from the square. Alternatively, two of the local pilots offer accommodation in private homes at similar rates: Alejo (320 408 81 81). 10.000 COP/night Edward (314 851 09 18). 15.000 COP/night Local pilots don't fly daily, only on weekends and on special days when they have passengers for tandem flights.
Nice and easy take off located in a grassy land surrounded with a fence where there is a house. Best way to get there is with the local pilots. Alternatively, take a jeep in the main park. The jeep will leave you a 5 minutes (steep) walk from the take off. Be aware that the jeeps are usually crammed so don't expect a very comfortable ride. Landing is besides the village, on a little hill with trees or on the surrounding land. Rather than a flat land, the place is made of small grassy rolling hills. Wind sock not always present. Most cases you have to get a bus to Cartago -which lies 15 km east of Ansermanuevo- and then a minibus to Ansermanuevo. Medellin to Cartago takes about 6 hours and leaves from Medellin's south bus terminal. There are direct buses from Cali to Ansermanuevo.
