Candelaria's Salt Ponds
This section of the
trail comes from the east (right). I haven't explored the trail
in the first detour (to the right, blue).
But judging by the maps this trail is flat and long and probably has
many thorn gardens! It will end in the paved road several
hectometers north of The Interpretative Center.
You will cross a dirt bridge that will take
you to the red square.
This is a abandoned water box. Several meters to the left of
this square you will find a tree step stair, for sure the
remaining of a long gone wood building (house or office).
Fifty meter to the north will take you to a large Salt mountain (if
you are lucky). After you had explored this area, continue in
the main trail until you find Punta Águila (Map 6). This
trail measures approximately one (1) mile, from the road gate to Punta
Águila.

This structure is marked by a red rectangle in the previous map.
Because of all the wall support I guess that this was a water cage or reserve!
Same structure seen from the back!
Same structure, but looking towards the route we came from!

Punta Águila!
English invasion, 1585.
In this illustration the trail comes from the right (east). There is
a short trail that takes you to the
site of the next photo. But if you don't take this trail and continue
you will find Punta Águila (Eagle Point)
and its small Island. The trail continues north and it will end in
El Combate beach (1.8 miles).
