Hike to Paradise

Hiking & Waterfall

Duration: *5 hours

About

Approximately 45 minutes from San Juan lies Charco Prieto. Immerse yourself in the countryside of our island. Experience the highlands of Bayamon, Puerto Rico. This hiking trail leads you through lush tropical forest of our mountainous interior to several fresh water pools ending in a majestic towering waterfall.

At over 1,000 feet in elevation your trek will require attention to detail to avoid slippery areas. You will cross the stream several times on the way up. Following the beaten path will lead you up over rock formations and fallen trees. Expect uneven surfaces, and some rock climbing while you assist yourself pulling on ropes to reach the finale.

Some sights you’ll see include:

Vistas of the Metropolitan area along the drive up inland.
Hiking trail about 25 to 45 minutes long, depending on physical ability and weather conditions.
Waterfall at the end of the trail, incredibly beautiful and not only impressive; but also soothing for those who lay their eyes and ears on it.

What to Bring / Attire

• Boots or tennis shoes (closed shoes), no flip flops allowed
• Dry fit clothes or bathing suit
• Towels
• A change of clothes

Important Notes:

Expect a few dogs on the Hike. These neighborhood friendlies are committed partners who follow anyone who ventures the trail leading to the waterfall.

On completing our activity we will take you to a Roadside Dive that shouldn’t be missed. The stop for foodies and workers alike serves local Puerto Rican food.
