The woman who works there--did not get her name--is incredibly nice and generous with her time. She not only explained several unique plants and features of the garden, but we engaged with her and got some of her personal history how she came her, lost her home to a hurricane in 1995, relocated to the mainland and then came back and has been on ST ever since. The garden itself is on the small size but very interesting and beautiful. It's a self-guided tour. Many different types of exotic flowers, plus turtles and lizards. There are some great views of the nearby islands and the famous Magens bay. Overall, if you are looking for some plant beauty and want to escape the crowds, this is worth checking out.

The bird and butterfly pavilions are simply amazing. The animals are so close that at times you almost wonder if they are real until a bird squawks, blinks, or moves. The experience feels much more personal than many larger attractions and was a huge hit with our children. The cable cars are an incredible experience and offer some truly spectacular views. Riding above the forest is something we will remember for a long time. However, if you have an extreme fear of heights, you should know that this attraction may be challenging. The views throughout the park are beautiful, and there are several small playgrounds where children can take a break and play. There are also long nature trails and an observation tower that offer even more opportunities to enjoy the scenery. That said, visitors should understand that this is a physically demanding park in some areas. If you have mobility limitations, certain disabilities, or are pushing a stroller, you may not be able to experience everything. There are many long walking paths, steep hills, and staircases throughout the park. The park does provide warning signs before many of these sections, so pay attention to them. The path leading to the cable cars also includes stairs, and during our visit the elevator was out of service. This made things particularly difficult for visitors with disabilities and families using strollers. Bring water. Bring snacks. Do not attempt to visit without them, especially if you plan to explore the trails. The Puerto Rico heat and the amount of walking can catch up with you quickly. Transportation is another thing visitors should plan carefully. We relied on Uber, which worked, but drivers generally only dropped us off and picked us up at the main parking lot rather than the actual park entrance. The distance is significant enough that visitors must take the shuttle bus to the entrance. The shuttle runs regularly and gets the job done, but think converted school bus rather than luxury transportation. The gift shop is somewhat small and the prices are a bit high, but honestly, it felt worthwhile. Purchasing something there felt like supporting the important work being done at the park. Overall, our family had an outstanding experience. I think Parque Forestal La Marquesa is a perfect introduction to nature and hiking for children who may not yet be ready for more demanding adventures like El Yunque. It allows kids to experience the beauty of Puerto Rico's natural environment in a setting that feels adventurous while still being family friendly. We made wonderful memories here and would absolutely visit again!

It's a nice place to visit with the family that won't set you back. Entrance is $7 for adults and $3 for kids. Children under under 2 don't pay. Our son liked seeing the turtles, birds, and iguanas. We enjoyed a hike around the grounds. It's an easy hike, apt for all ages. There's plenty to see, from flora to sculptures. There is an indigenous ceremonial plaza, a small museum with indigenous artifacts, and of course there are some remnants of the old sugar mill. The Casa Jíbara is pretty cool. You can take a guided tour for an extra $3 or roam around on your own. If you get hungry there is a shack that serves food and refreshments.
