Toma su nombre del Cerro La Marquesa, la mayor elevación en Guaynabo de 1670 pies de altura y que se encuentra al Sur del Parque Forestal La Marquesa.

La hidrología del parque se compone de tres cuencas: Quebrada Limones, Quebrada Damiana y Quebrada Central.

Los suelos son de buen drenaje y pertenecen al grupo de la humatas, múcaras y naranjito arcilloso, cuya fertilidad natural es mediana.

La geología es de la formación Santa Olaya Lava (Ks), del Periodo Cretácico del origen volcánico y presenta formaciones diorita de cuarzo del periodo Terciario.

El parque está abierto de Miércoles a Domingo, de 9:00 am a 5:00pm.

Entrada:
Niños y Seniors = $1, Adultos = $3
Autos = $1, Guaguas = $2

Las coordenadas te llevarán a la 1era etapa. De ahí obtendrás lo necesario para proseguir la búsqueda.

NO hay que pisar o perturbar la vegetación para buscar el cache y/o etapas.

Pido encarecidamente que NO pongan fotos de los caches (ya sean stages o final), eso le destruye el "misterio" de la búsqueda a los próximos geocachers. Parte de la sorpresa y maravillas que muestra este cache se afectarían con eso. Gracias


The park takes its name from Cerro La Marquesa, the highest elevation in Guaynabo at 1,670 feet, which is located south of La Marquesa Forest Park.

La Marquesa is a tropical rainforest, whose annual rainfall is 50 to 70 inches and whose average annual temperature is 25 °C(77 °F)

The hydrology of the park consists of three basins: Quebrada Limones, Quebrada Damiana and Quebrada Central.

The soils are well drained and belong to the humatas, naranjito clay and múcaras, which have medium natural fertility.

The geology is of Santa Olaya Lava (Ks) formation from the Cretaceous Period and has volcanic formations of quartz diorite of the Tertiary period.

The park is open from Wednesday to Sunday, from 9:00 to 5:00 pm.

Admission:
Children and Seniors = $ 1, Adults = $3
Car = $1, Bus = $ 2

Coordinates will take you to the 1st stage. There you will find the necessary information to continue the search.

No bushwaking or trampling of vegetation is needed to look for the cache and/or stages.

I kindly request that NO photos of the caches (stages and/or final) be uploaded to the logs, the "mystery" of the search is destroyed for other geocachers. Part of the surprises and wonders this cache shows will be affected by that. Thank you.
