This is the entrance to the main waterfall. It´s a very narrow path, you can see that rock hanging between the walls and the actual waterfall in the background. It looks way more imposing in person.

Overview

Looking for things to do in Santo Domingo? You can't miss this hike in Dominican Republic. Let´s get to know the dominican countryside and the coolest hike in DR: El Tabernáculo.

LGBTQ+ friendly experience

We first take a 2-hour road trip full of breathtaking sights to get to Los Cacaos, to have a dominican breakfast.

Then, we begin our journey to El Tabernáculo. It's a 3 to 4-hour route within hiking, swimming, climbing, etc. It's a route full of adrenaline and adventure. In person looks better than in pictures. The difficulty of this route is considered medium, it's a strenuous experience. It's not easy, completely doable, though. You must not have any injuries. You don't need to be an athlete, though.

After the hike, we change clothes (there's no bathroom, we use the vehicle and nature) and go back to the town to have a dominican lunch.

Then we come back happy to Santo Domingo at around 5pm.

Activity itinerary

Parque Cervantes
  • 10m
This is the meeting point. Here we are gathering, checking the tickets and boarding the vehicle. Then we take a 2-hour drive.
Los Cacaos
  • 5m
We are making a brief stop in Los Cacaos park to know more about this town and the attractions it offers.
colmado maría
  • 1h
This is the place where we are having breakfast. It is a typical Dominican 'colmado' which is a local supermarket with a couple of tables. Depending on the day of the week, out food place could be different. On weekdays will be this, on weekends it is going to be Parador Dalia.
Los Cacaos
  • 4h
El Tabernáculo. This is the highlight of the activity. We start with a strech up, then we get into the river and hike upstream. Along the way, we will find lots of beatiful swimming holes and little waterfalls. At some points, we´ll have to climb. The way is rather challenging; completely doable, though. At the end of the way up, we´ll find El Tabernáculo, which is a majestic thundering waterfall. You´ll get surprised by the way it looks in person. There we can swim or just enjoy the view and relax. Then we hike the same way back, dowmstream. But this time will be funnier, since we are taking some waterslides and jumps into the beautiful swimming holes we find along the way. The total hike from start to finish is around 4-5 hours
colmado maría
  • 1h
We go back to colmado Maria after the hike, but this time for having a delicious typical Dominican lunch. If we had breakfast at 'Parador Dalia' (on weekends) instead of Colmado Maria, we are having lunch at that very same place.
Parque Cervantes
  • 5m
After another 2-hour drive, we get back to where we started: Parque Cervantes. The experience will finish here and everybody is going home happy :)
