Sendero del Cangrejo

The “crab trail” takes you on a route through dry forest and scrubland on the way to the towering El Morro. You’ll climb a partly rocky, challenging path to reach the mesa’s summit. Once there, the panoramic views sweep over the Atlantic and distant cayes on one side, and Montecristi’s farmlands on the other. Take on this hike at sunset for an even more spectacular view.
