The beautiful natural landscapes make Cuba the perfect country for hiking and trekking. Many of its areas contain excellent routes, both through lush forests and through rugged mountains, where you will connect with nature like never before.
Cuba has many trails and routes through which you can take a pleasant walk, from more accessible places to more difficult, for the most daring. The well-known Sierra Maestra and the beautiful Sierra del Escambay constitute two highly visited natural areas for rewarding walks, although the walks to the top of the Turquino peak, known as the 'ceiling of Cuba', and the San Claudio route in the magnificent Sierra del Rosario Reserve, where you will find a unique fauna and flora.
You can also enjoy the fresh air by hiking in the rocky mountains in El Yunque, the Balcón de Iberia circuit and in the Alejandro de Humbolt National Park. They are more demanding circuits but without a doubt they will guarantee you beautiful views of Cuba and gratitude towards nature.
On the other hand, whether you go alone or accompanied, you can join groups to explore trails and forests that go from Lake Hanabanilla to the Cuban Park, which includes several days. Get more information in Central Folder, in Topes de Collantes.
