What you'll see & do
- ✓Our tour connects the dots along the Road 191 Corridor in El Yunque National Forest, in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico.
- ✓You will stand before an 85' waterfall. Take plenty of pictures here and here commentary on the area, and what determines the amount of water run done the rock surface.
- ✓On reaching this clearing you will see a concrete 75' tower as the main feature here. Climb it for a grand vista of the North East side of the island. Windows line the staircase all the way up the structure providing 360° views. Get the view from its base, walk up a story or two, or reach the top. The further up you go, the greater that rewarding view gets. Note: The views of townships Luquillo and Fajardo are weather allowing, of course.
- ✓You will find a gentle staircase with large landings here. They lead you to a pool built by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Here you will receive commentary of the area, of when it was build and the purpose it served. Then you may walk around it. Note: No swimming is allowed here.
- ✓Walk a short rainforest trail with guided commentary. Learn of our Flora & Fauna, of species conservation efforts, and our reforestation efforts too.
- ✓Reach the Mameyes River, designated in 2002 as part of our National Wild and Scenic Rivers System, preserving its outstanding natural, cultural and recreational values in a free-flowing condition for the enjoyment of present and future generations. Take pictures, check out the igneous rocks on the river bed, wet your feet, or go for a refreshing dip, or wade about here. As always, weather conditions may make entering the water dangerous. Your guide will assess the area and relay if you may enter the water.
