Ayo Rock Formations

Ayo

Another boulder group near Casibari, with red rock paintings left by the Arawak people on some rock faces. It sees far fewer visitors than Casibari.

The Ayo boulder formation is also made of huge diorite. A circular trail around the group takes about 20 minutes. On some rock faces you can see red-brown rock paintings left by the indigenous people, protected behind iron railings. There are no climbing steps as at Casibari, but it is quieter, and you may spot lizards and parrots among the rock crevices. Entry is free, with a small shop at the entrance. It is about a 5-minute drive north of Casibari, not far from the Bushiribana gold mill ruins and Natural Bridge.
