Highlights
- Catarata La Coca - At an elevation of 1, 476 feet (450 meters) above sea level, La Coca Falls is a spectacular waterfall! The waters of La Coca Falls drop 85 feet (26 meters) onto a huge rock formation at the bottom of the falls. This is an excellent spot to take photos.
- Yokahu Observation Tower - This 69 foot tower was built by Dr. Frank H. Wadsworth (former Forest Supervisor and Director of IITF) in the early 1960s. Four types of the forest can be viewed from Yokahú Tower: Colorado (smooth to the south), Tabonuco (irregular surrounding with white-leaved Yagrumos), Palm (on the steep slopes) and Cloud Forest (on the ridges) are all visible along with the coastline and all the way to the Virgin Islands on a clear day (10 mile + view). The dense old forest of the Baño de Oro Research Natural Area in the upper Mameyes Valley to the east may also be viewed.
- Angelito Trail - This short trail (25 min hike each way) descends through Tabonuco trees in the lower montane forest to the federally designated \

Jenn - Wonderful! Litza was fun, caring, very knowledgeable. Right amount of time at each stop. The trip was a leisurely pace and nice size group. Perfect for my 80-yr-old mother (very healthy and energetic) and me; there were also a couple of families 10-16 year old kids, couples, friends, singles.

Very Little Info - We had an okay experience with the provider. While he was nice, he didn’t share much knowledge about the attraction. The basic facts were given. In no way this was an interactive and interesting tour. So little was shared I thought we were just taking a regular city bus to drop us off and pick us up. I wish the guide spoke about PR, San Juan, gave a little more history on the way to the forest.
