Hike to the Limón Waterfall

El Limón Natural Waterfall is located in the town of El Limón, in the stunning Samaná Peninsula. This natural wonder rises approximately 50 meters (165 feet) high and forms a crystal-clear natural pool at its base, surrounded by lush tropical rainforest.
This tour lasts approximately 7 hours. The journey to the waterfall takes about 2 hours and you may choose to hike or ride on horseback. The trail is of moderate difficulty, leading through a humid tropical forest where the warm climate makes the experience even more enjoyable. Along the way, we will cross two shallow rivers, perfect for cooling off and fully immersing yourself in the natural surroundings.
To complete the experience, the tour includes lunch at a local restaurant known for its traditional coconut fish, a regional specialty that promises an unforgettable culinary experience. The menu also offers other tropical-inspired dishes that are sure to delight your taste buds.
