What to expect

- Visitors pass the ruins of a 19th-century sugar mill and a natural sinkhole used by Taino people, with guide commentary on each site.
- Suitable for moderate fitness levels; the route includes 200–400 m of elevation gain, with rest stops at shaded lookouts every 30 minutes.
- Small group size capped at 10 hikers ensures individual attention and allows for pace adjustments based on group ability.
