27 Waterfalls of Damajagua
27 Charcos de Damajagua
A canyoning adventure of jumping and sliding through natural rock chutes, the most thrilling outdoor experience in northern Dominican Republic.
The Damajagua River has carved 27 waterfalls and pools into the valley. Visitors wear helmets and life jackets and follow their guide on a hike uphill, then descend waterfall by waterfall, jumping and sliding down smooth limestone chutes. You can choose 7, 12, or all 27 levels, and the full trip takes about 1.5 to 4 hours. A park guide must accompany you, and fees depend on the number of levels. Wear non-slip shoes and keep your phone in a waterproof pouch. The site is near Imbert, about 30 km from Puerto Plata, and you can join a group tour or drive yourself.
