Discover the Majestic Monte Llano: A Peak of Natural Wonder

Getting There

• Public Transport

  Start your journey at the main bus terminal in Puerto Plata, located near the city center. Look for a bus heading towards Imbert or the surrounding areas. These buses leave frequently. When you board, confirm with the driver that they will take you to Imbert. The ride will take approximately 30 minutes. Upon arrival in Imbert, disembark at the central square. From there, you can find local motoconchos (motorcycle taxis). Negotiate a fare to take you to Monte Llano, which is about a 15-20 minute ride from Imbert. Make sure to show them the name 'Monte Llano' to ensure they understand your destination.

• Motoconcho

  If you prefer a more direct approach, you can start by hiring a motoconcho from any location in Puerto Plata directly to Monte Llano. Simply ask for a ride to Monte Llano and ensure that the driver understands the destination. The fare may vary, but it is usually reasonable. The motoconcho ride will take about 30-40 minutes, depending on traffic and road conditions.

• Walking and Hiking

  For the adventurous, you can walk part of the way to Monte Llano. Start at the central park in Puerto Plata and head east towards the coastal road (Avenida de las Américas). Follow this road until you reach the outskirts of the city. From there, look for trails that lead into the hills towards Monte Llano. This option is recommended only for experienced hikers and those familiar with navigating rural areas, as the trails may not be well-marked.
