Viaducto Agrícola "Batalla de Niquitao"

The Viaduct Agrícola 'Batalla de Niquitao' is a concrete arch bridge reinforced with steel that crosses the El Molino Creek. The structure connects several mountain villages and enables the movement of people and goods between communities in the region.

The structure was built in the early 1990s to connect the remote communities of Niquitao, Boconó, Tuñame, and Las Mesitas. This infrastructure was crucial for opening up the agricultural areas in the mountains for better transport.

The viaduct is a landmark for local communities and represents the connection between farming areas that rely on steady transportation links. It has become a point of reference for people moving between the scattered villages in the mountainous region.

The structure is located in the mountains and is accessible by roads that lead up from the villages. The best time to visit is during the dry season when the roads are easier to navigate.

The viaduct is used by emergency and civil protection teams for training exercises, including rappelling practice from the bridge structure. This unexpected use shows how the infrastructure serves purposes beyond its original agricultural function.
