During our hike, we’ll pause for a lunch break, enjoying a meal of rice, meat, and plantain, accompanied by a refreshing lemonade to restore our energy.
Our day will conclude at the rural inn of the El Salto School, renowned for its beauty and as a haven for young farmers and mountain enthusiasts. Here, we will unwind and rest in preparation for the next day's adventures.
