El Yunque National Forest

El Yunque National Forest is a forest located in northeastern Puerto Rico and is the only tropical rain forest in the United States National Forest System. El Yunque National Rainforest is located on the slopes of the Sierra de Luquillo mountains, encompassing 28,000 acres and is home to El Toro, the highest mountain peak in the forest rising 1,065 metres (3,494 ft) above sea level. The forest has a number of trails from which the jungle-like territory's flora and fauna can be appreciated. There are also plenty of streams and waterfalls, with La Coca falls being one of the largest and the La Mina falls, one of the prettiest.
It is an easy day trip from Old San Juan, but pack water and good shoes. The hike to La Mina is especially challenging. In the forest keep a lookout for birds, snails, and of course, iguanas.
