Paths and viewing points reveal clear freshwater pools beneath rock formations. It is one of the easiest ways to add a nature-focused stop to a visit to the capital.

Planning your visit

Allow time to explore the walkways without rushing. Stairs and damp surfaces can affect accessibility, so wear suitable footwear and check current opening arrangements before going. Pair the visit with the city's historic Zona Colonial to experience two very different sides of Santo Domingo.
