Description

Hike to a Hidden Waterfall Near San Juan!

Escape the ordinary and step into the heart of Puerto Rico’s lush wilderness on this hidden waterfall adventure! This guided hike to Charco Prieto Waterfall takes you deep into the scenic mountains of Bayamón, where you’ll trek through a jungle-like landscape, cross rivers, and climb over fallen logs to reach a breathtaking 130-foot cascade.
Along the way, you’ll discover beautiful flora, hear the calls of endemic birds, and even take a refreshing dip in natural pools fed by cool, clear mountain water. Led by certified interpretive guides, this immersive experience is the perfect way to connect with Puerto Rico’s untamed beauty.
Just 40 to 50 minutes from San Juan, this off-the-beaten-path trail is one of Bayamón’s best-kept secrets. Known only to the most adventurous people who dare to venture into this far corner of Bayamón. The hike to the main waterfall takes approximately 40 to 60 minutes, depending on your fitness level, and promises a true adventure. You’ll climb over trees, jump across streams, and traverse fallen logs. Upon reaching the stunning waterfall, you’ll have plenty of time to explore, capture photos, and swim in the crystal-clear waters. Afterward, we’ll return to San Juan, leaving you with unforgettable memories of your Puerto Rican adventure.
