Vereda Charco El Pilón

Vereda Charco El Pilón is a 1.08-mile (1.7 km) route in Maricao State Forest leading to a natural river pool. The terrain is difficult to navigate, with roots, rocks, and fallen trees, and the path crosses the river multiple times, so wet feet are practically unavoidable; footwear with good traction is recommended. Further upstream, past El Pilón, lies Charco La Iglesia, which is even harder to reach. Avoid the trail if there is a risk of flooding, as water levels at the crossings can rise quickly.
