This is a little tourist trap, but it's cute for photos and worth a quick stop. Don't buy a tour ticket. Just catch the city bus from Medellin, El Peñol, La Piedra del Peñon, or Guatapé. From Guatapé, it took about 40 min and cost 11mil or something. Less than $3.
Tell the driver to drop you at La Replica. Then you walk about a half mile up the long drive. Go early or late afternoon on a weekday to avoid the tour busses.
It is free to walk around the little plaza. There is a restaurant / cafe and many tourist trap souvenir shops.
It isn't a must-see, but there's a nice view of the lake below, and the town replica is cute when there aren't any other people there. It makes a nice little stop between El Peñol (12 min away) and La Piedra (25 min away).
I stayed in Guatapé and took the early bus to La Piedra to climb the rock at 7am. There were a total of 7 people at that hour on a Wednesday. Then I returned to the main road and caught the bus to La Replica. It took less than an hour to walk up to it, take a look around, and walk back down. Then I caught the bus from the road again and was in the town of El Peñol by 11am. Busses pass every 30 min or so and you just wave them down.

It's a replica of the old Peñol town. It has a great view of the lake and a few great souvenirs shops. Great place for pictures.

A beautiful place. Small, as it only has the main buildings replicated from the original El Peñol. There is a nice restaurant and a cafe.

The whole tour is fabulous: the guides are very friendly, the candy stations, selling souvenirs... the Don Oscar Restaurant... excellent.
The boat tour around the lake is very enjoyable. It's worth it!

Old Peñol is a colorful tour to Guatapé that tells the story of the old town before it was flooded to form the Guatapé Dam
