After a visit to Lago Enriquillo later this month, I want to go to Constanza, hopefully without driving back to San Cristobal. How is the road from SJ de Ocoa to Constanza. I'll be in a compact rental car. About how long will it take. Also, are the dunes at Las Salinas worth a visit. Thx for your thoughts. A gringo whose Espanol es muy mal.

Compact Rental ?

Do not consider this trip in a compact rental. You need to upgrade to a 4x4 to navigate portions of this trek. Also, the rental company may exclude its vehicles from transiting such remote areas as the cost and logistics of extrication of a damaged vehicle is extraordinary.

Suggest you adjust your plans to the San Cristobal route.

PJT

I agree with you PJT. We have property in Ocoa, in the mountainous area they call 'la malagueta', so I know that horrible road very well. When I read the OP to Mr. AE he said "Tell him lots of luck".

OP: listen to PJT.
