About Bano Grande
Why this place stands out
A historic stone-lined pool surrounded by mature cloud forest along El Yunque's PR-191 corridor.
Bano Grande was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the 1930s and is now a scenic historic stop rather than a swimming destination. A short paved approach leads to the quiet pool beneath dense Palo Colorado forest. Respect barriers, do not enter the water, and verify road and recreation-site status before traveling.
