best hikes in Puerto Rico

Hal Amen wrote a piece for Matador perfect for me.

I’d never heard of hiking in Peurto Rico.

Three recommended walks:

• El Yunque

While only an hour from downtown San Juan and firmly on the tourist track, the tropical rainforest of El Yunque, also known as the Caribbean National Forest, is a must-see.

Amen also recommends these as best hikes:

• Bosque Estatal de Guanica

• Bosque Estatal de Guajataca
