El Tablón is a town and municipality in the Nariño Department, Colombia. Travelers visit the town for its "mystical stone statues" from the pre-Columbian era [3] and other archaeological sites (e.g., ancient rock carvings), go rock climbing, and do horseback riding. Climbers in the region get a good view of the Juanambú river canyon. The Aponte Indigenous Reserve is located within the municipality.[4]
