PUERTO RICO

Adjuntas

Adjuntas is a small mountainside municipality in Puerto Rico located central midwest of the island. It is nicknamed "the Switzerland of Puerto Rico", because of its relatively chilly weather. The terrain in Adjuntas is very mountainous, due to its location in the Cordillera Central.

Cañón San Cristobal

Known as the island's main canyon. It's preserved by Fideicomiso de Conservación de Puerto Rico. It's about 4.5 miles long, just around 100 feet wide, and with 400-500 foot high rocky walls on both sides. San Cristobal Canyon was carved by a river that currently serves as a boundary between Barranquitas and Aibonito. Here you'll find waterfalls, pools, tiny harmless snakes, cliffs, and great rock formations.
