La Piedra Letreada

A Taíno petroglyph site beside a river in the valley northwest of Constanza, where boulders are carved with human faces and geometric motifs.

The site lies in a river valley about 10 km northwest of Constanza. Along the riverbank, large boulders bear dozens of human faces, animal figures and symbols carved by the Taíno people before Columbus arrived. It is one of the most important rock-art sites in the Cordillera Central. Reaching it means following a dirt track and a riverside path, so it is best to hire a local guide. The surrounding farmland and streams make it a natural pairing with a valley tour.
