Can I travel around freely in Cuba?


Question: How free is it to travel around himself in Cuba and could you recommend some places outside Havana?

Answer: The short and somewhat frustrating answer to the first question is: not much. Cuba has a wonderful nature, the most dramatic in the West around Viñales. This is a bizarre kalkstensbackar protruding from an undulating green landscapes full of caves and underground pools. But even here, in Cuba's most popular artificial Park located, is hiking monitored. You need an official guide, and there are definite leads.
Likewise, it is of the 1,106 square kilometers large Parque Nacional Guanahacabibes, they State, with only a handful of 2-3 kilometres of hiking trails.
It is annoying with our Western standards to be able to go wherever and whenever we want to be able to see so little of Cuba's rich natural beauty. Good guides will be hiking informative.
Other major destinations are the leafy paradise Las Terrazas (in Delices and Mayabeque province), the fantastic mountain landscape Pico Turquino, Cuba's highest peak of 1 972 meters (Granmaprovinsen), as well as wilderness, Parque Nacional Alejandro de Humboldt.
