Route

1. The excursion starts with a short briefing to explain the proceedings of the day. We then go to our first stop: the Padre Nuestro Ecological and Archaeological Jungle Trail. Padre Nuestro is located within the area of Parque Nacional del Este just outside Bayahibe. The trail has different pathways, ranging in difficulty along its 1.9 km / 1.2 miles. Sturdy shoes are recommended. The trail takes you through the dry tropical jungle, a landscape of limestone, butterflies and birds, as well as impressive underground fresh water caverns. We will tell you about the history of the Park and you can explore the remains of the Taino settlements, the first inhabitants of the Dominican Republic. You also get to experience the magnificent native flora and fauna, which is unique to the East Coast of Hispaniola

4. When we arrive at the river, our river boat is already waiting for us. We ill board and then enjoy the scenery ride up the river until we reach our farm Yuca Yena. While on the boat you can take in the beauty of the Dominican jungle and its wildlife. On our Farm we will have a Dominican lunch and coffee. After that you can try out the Tarzan swing, go kayaking or enjoy the pool with a beautiful view over the river: If you would like there is a guided food/fruit trail where you can try some cacao and sugar cane, with explanation on how they are produced.
