Mina Tuna is a blast of a trail dropping in from the top of Volcan Casitagua, through a wide variety of dirt and sand, steeps, natural berms and rock gardens. At top there are many Tunas, a fruit that grows on cactus, delicious and good for health! Beware, they are filled with spines! The trail ends in the Middle of the World monument!
