A small-group hike into El Yunque, the only tropical rainforest in the US National Forest System, ending at natural waterslides carved into the rock.

What you'll do

El Yunque is the only tropical rainforest in the US National Forest System, and this small-group tour keeps the pace unhurried as it winds through the trail network toward a series of natural rock waterslides fed by the forest's rivers. Guides point out the coqui frogs, tropical birds, and dense canopy along the way, and the trip usually ends with time to swim and slide at the pools. Because the group stays small, there is more room to ask questions and less waiting around at the water features than on the larger bus tours.

Pro tip

Rain gear or a quick-dry shirt is worth packing since El Yunque earns its name; trails can be muddy, so closed-toe water shoes grip the rock better than flip-flops.
