More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from a gravel bar and the Koprucay River accepts you like a dare — cool, fast, and bright as a shard of turquoise. Trees lean over the current and limestone walls rise suddenly, squeezing the water through a corridor of rock. For two hours you ride the flow, paddling through riffles and broader pools, stopping at a sheltered bend to strip off a shirt and swim where the river slows.
