The story

Festival del Frio in Adjuntas

Festival del Frio is a February-to-March local festival held in Adjuntas, a central Puerto Rico mountain town whose cool, high-elevation climate has earned it the nickname La Suiza de Puerto Rico. The festival's name directly references the town's relatively cold temperatures, unusual for the tropical island.

Puerto Rico's popular image runs almost entirely toward beaches, palm trees and tropical heat, which makes Adjuntas, a town tucked into the island's central mountain range at roughly 2,300 feet elevation, something of an outlier.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Adjuntas sits at roughly 2,300 feet elevation in Puerto Rico's central mountain range, giving it noticeably cooler temperatures than the island's coastal lowlands, a contrast significant enough that the town has long carried the nickname La Suiza de Puerto Rico, the Switzerland of Puerto Rico

02

The mystery stays covered

Festival del Frio, listed among the town's confirmed annual events, leans directly into that identity, celebrating a climate quirk that sets Adjuntas apart from the tropical image most associate with the island

03

The city starts moving

It runs alongside other Adjuntas traditions such as El Gigante Marathon and the Feria Agricola del Gigante Dormido, both tied to the mountain scenery for which the town is known
