Las Tetas de Cayey

Cerro Las Tetas, also known as Las Tetas de Cayey or officially Las Piedras del Collado, are two mountain peaks located in the municipality of Salinas, Puerto Rico, north of the city of Salinas. Despite the common misconception, they are not located in the municipality of Cayey.

Since September 1, 2000, the peaks have become part of the Las Piedras del Collado Nature Reserve and are protected by law. Their height is 2,762 feet (842 m) above sea level. The peaks are named for their resemblance to a woman’s breasts. They are located about 500 meters (1,600 ft) southwest of the intersection of PR-1 and PR-162. The peaks are part of the “Cayey Mountain Range” (Sierra de Cayey).

The name of the mountain range where Las Tetas are located (Sierra de Cayey) may be a possible source of confusion regarding the location of the Las Tetas peaks themselves. Las Piedras del Collado is a picturesque forest and home to a variety of local tour companies that offer rock climbing, hiking, and even camping tours to the site.
