Forest Reserves in Puerto Rico
National forest reserves are representative of the diverse microclimates and ecology available through the Puerto Rico territory. El Yunque National Rainforest, established in 1903, is the only tropical rainforest administered by the U.S. Forest service. Though El Yunque is the largest contiguous reserve on the Island, there are equally important natural areas designated and national patrimony protected from development. These areas include karst zone forest canopy, dry forest and dense coastal mangroves that area sanctuary to endemic species and fantastic recreational areas for hiking and getting up close with nature.
