Río Maimón (Upper Section)

The upper stretch of the Río Maimón, in the Estebanía area, is a natural paradise that invites eco-tourism lovers to explore its crystal-clear waters and cool tropical forests. Perfect for hiking, birdwatching, and picnics under the shade of the trees, this spot delivers an authentic Dominican Republic experience, far from the urban hustle, where the river's tranquility and nature's chorus set the perfect stage to unplug and recharge.

The Río Maimón's upper section springs from springs rising among the hills of the Cordillera Central. Since pre-Columbian times, the Taíno used it as a fishing route and to gather fresh water. With the arrival of settlers, the area became key for irrigating sugarcane and cacao crops, and today it remains a recreation and natural conservation point near Estebanía.
