Nature Tour "Birdwatching on the Enigma of the Rock Trail

Description

When visiting the Ciénaga de Zapata National Park by Jeep, you will be able to contemplate the numerous species of both migratory and endemic birds that come to this wonderful Cuban site and its geological formations.

Values of the area ¨Sendero Enigma de La Roca¨

As a result of the karst processes of sinking blocks and collapse of the zenithal part of the dolines, segments of different forest formations appear associated (mangrove, marsh grass, semi-deciduous forests, coastal xeromorphic scrub, rocky and sandy coastal vegetation complexes), which generate a great variety of habitats and ecosystems in specific geographical areas, with a high generic diversity from the point of view of flora and fauna.

The area is bordered by coastal coral reefs, with live coral cover values above the average recently reported for the main reefs of Cuba (22-39 %) and presents a high heterogeneity and species richness.

The area is of great historical and social importance, due to the warlike events that occurred in the area in April 1961 and for having more than 10 archaeological sites in its interior.
