Getting VinalesVinales is about 40 minutes by car form Piner del Rio. if you come from havana you can either take the 3 hours highway route via Pinar del Rio or take the 6 hour scenic route along the cuban nort coast. Vinales and especially the surrounding valey are among the absolute top attractions of Cuba. Vinales is about 40 km north of Pinar del Rio in the Pinar del Rio province. The valley is stunning. The flat land, full of tobacco and palmtrees is scatered with 20-30 m high bumbs called mogotes. These are the remnants of the former plateau which is almost entirely washed away by water during the last couple of million years. The process is comparable with that in (Turkey) but here's the mogotes are completely covered with green vegetation. Like everywhere in Cuba, the people in Vinales are very friendely. The village, with it's colonial main street has a nice and friendly atmosphere. |
