Cerro Arequita

Reviewed By Brittany_11_10 - Los Angeles, United States

Cerro Arequita is about 20km north of Minas, and public transit does go there (from the omnibus terminal in town). You can visit just for the day, or you can camp in (very) nearby Camping Arequita. They have cabanas (though I don't know the cost), or you can pitch a tent for $140 Ur. pesos a night. The campground has a pool, river swimming, a market, a restaurant, and hot water for showers. Hiking to the top of Cerro Arequita is easy, and I think the trail is only 3km or so (at least that's what my newfound friends--local Uruguayans--told me). The Ombu forest was particularly enchanting, but the view from the top was worth the little hike, especially at sunset. I highly recommend visiting and/or camping if you like getting out in nature and seeing beautiful landscapes.
