Monte Pirata

Monte Pirata is the highest point on Vieques at 960 feet, rising within the Vieques National Wildlife Refuge. A trail once led hikers to its summit.

TICATOVE, a Vieques conservation group, said in December 2022 that the summit had been closed to the public for over 20 years, that an observation platform there was built, and that the Fish and Wildlife Service would add a parking lot, a trail and signs before it reopens. The refuge's own pages list no trail up the mountain, so ask the refuge office before you go.
