At the base of the waterfall, there is a natural pool. Some claim that its sulfurous waters have therapeutic properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The place is particularly enchanting during the rainy season, although the waterfall&#8217;s flow significantly decreases during the dry season. Salto del Arco Iris is popular among Cubans, especially in July\/August and on weekends when many people from Havana come to swim. It can get crowded, diminishing some of its charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The entrance fee is 3 CUC per person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-1024x910.jpeg\" alt=\"Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa\" class=\"wp-image-13804\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-1024x910.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-300x266.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-768x682.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-1536x1364.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-1920x1705.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-600x533.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa-800x711.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.ulysses.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Salto-del-Arco-Iris-Salto-de-Soroa.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Les Ba\u00f1os romanos (Roman Baths)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;ba\u00f1os romanos&#8221; or Roman baths can be found near the parking area of Salto del Arco Iris.

The walk through the lush vegetation to reach the summit is stunning. The forest comes alive, awakening all your senses. At the top, you can observe the red-headed vultures, an endemic species of Cuba, soaring above the Mirador as if standing guard. It&#8217;s impressive and slightly awe-inspiring!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hiking and Horseback Riding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To arrange a hiking or horseback riding excursion, you can visit Hotel Soroa. They offer guided tours that will take you to explore the geological and natural wonders of the region, including the unique rock formation known as the Sierra Derrumbada labyrinth or the natural pool called Posa del Amor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bird Watching<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Soroa area is a paradise for bird enthusiasts. Hotel Soroa organizes guided bird-watching tours (priced between 6 and 8 CUC per hour) where you can discover the local bird species.

The project focused on reforesting the Sierra del Rosario, where Spanish settlers and coffee farmers had previously cleared many trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1968, the Cuban authorities replanted around 700 trees of 24 different species in the area. In 1985, the Las Terrazas Nature Reserve was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the local community thrives on tourism, offering activities such as hiking, swimming, and zip-lining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, Las Terrazas provides an excellent opportunity to experience a different side of Cuba, away from the usual tourist spots! If you have enough time during your stay in Cuba, we recommend spending a night in Soroa and another night in Las Terrazas to fully explore the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Las Terrazas has a hotel called
