Sobre este Tip
San Esteban National Park climbs the hills just north of Valencia and runs toward Puerto Cabello, so it is the easy green escape from the city. Locals walk the Camino de los Españoles, an old colonial route with an arched stone bridge, and routes that lead to waterfalls. Go early in the dry season, December to April, and ask Inparques, the park authority, about trail access before you set out.
