Highlights
  • Canovanas - Traveling East of San Juan we will encounter the Sierra de Luquillo Mountains. Also known to locals as El Yunque. We will visit an area just outside the land managed by the United States Forest Service.

We will begin our hike on an easy slant for the first 10 minutes or so, then we will encounter a more challenging terrain, on a steeper incline, for the next 15 minutes.

You will be asked to wear a life jacket during the hike into and out-of the activity.

Reaching our destination will afford you the opportunity to take beautiful pictures of a pretty waterfall. You can then swim in the pool at the foot of falls. Some may even approach the waterfall and set foot at its base.

The return leg being uphill should take anywhere from 30 - 45 minutes depending on your physical condition. We will make several stops for breathers.

Also included in the experience is a lunch stop at a local family restaurant. Authentic, fairly priced foodstuffs will be served. (Food cost not included.)

What's Included
  • Complimentary bottled water
  • Comfortable in-vehicle air conditioning

Additional Information

Puerto Rico El Yunque Rainforest Hiking to a Waterfall and Cliff Jumping Adventure

Embark on a journey to our breathtaking waterfalls, serene rivers, and lush forests that is an adventure in itself. Discover our hidden gem that will take your breath away. With over two decades of exploration, we have uncovered this magical spot that offers both swimming and cliff-jumping thrills. Experience a day like no other!

Upon reaching the river’s edge, you’ll be greeted by pools and a towering cliff. A spectacular waterfall greets you upon emerging from the forest’s shade into the clearing. A paradise for photographers! Feel free to take a dip, and we’ll point out several spots that are perfect for leaping into the water.

The pathway to the waterfall includes a short, mild slope (10 minutes) followed by a steeper descent (20 minutes).

The trail provides all the elements of a classic, genuine forest hike. As you navigate through, you’ll encounter blooming wildflowers, tangling passion fruit vines, and towering tropical trees. Keep an eye out for local wildlife such as birds, snails, and more.

Best Rainforest Tour In Puerto Rico - This was one of the best excursions I have ever experienced. I was picked up from my hotel along with 2 others who booked this tour. Our guide, Narayan, lead us to a remote waterfall along one of El Yunque's rivers. Once there, we walked underneath the waterfall before jumping into the river below. After swimming in the river, we were treated to my favorite part of the adventure, cliff jumping. Narayan lead everyone to 3 different jump points. He gave instruction to everyone prior to each jump and ensured each jumper was ready for the next one. The cliff jumping was thoroughly incredible and exciting. After the cliff jumping, he brought us to a local restaurant for authentic Puerto Rican cuisine before driving us back to our hotels. If I ever go on another tour in Puerto Rico it will be with Seeing Puerto Rico.

Highly recommend this adventure! - Our tour guide was excellent. He took us to a remote area that nobody goes to. He was very informative about Puerto Rico and the rainforest. He was very interesting and funny. I thoroughly enjoyed. he took us to a waterfall where we got to swim and jump off a rock if we wanted. He was patient with people who were nervous. He took us to an absolutely delicious lunch and helped us pick from the menu. I highly recommend. The walk back from the waterfall was pretty steep, but I’m 56 and I was able to do it. He won’t rush you.

Amazing Experience...Highly Recommend! - I originally booked a tour with another company but it was canceled because of weather and I'm glad! After researching I found a company that took smaller groups for a little more money and it was worth it! Narayan took us on a private tour and we were able to enjoy the whole experience. Highly Recommend him and his company!

Amazing Experience! Highly Recommend! - At first I booked a cheaper tour that took up to 30 people that canceled due to weather and I'm glad it did! I re-booked a smaller tour with Narayan and Seeing Puerto Rico and recieved a 1st Class personalized experience. He took us to a private place that we had all to ourselves. Can't recommend the experience any higher...definitely a highlight of our trip!
