Cycle to Petroglyphs

Location:
Isla de Ometepe, Nicaragua

Bicycling

V!VA User‘s Description

The ride begins hilly but becomes flat and takes around 45 minutes to reach an isolated house, where there is a sign to the petroglyphs. There are two sites with ancient carvings on boulders, but the real treat is the unique statue Gator figure on the beach. Unfortunately this is only visible in April, otherwise it is underwater and the petroglyphs are not hugely worthwhile.

Getting There
Organise through Hacienda Merida

Price Description: $4 cycle hire for 2 hours. $1 entry
