Families can very well opt for picnics with great barbecues in here. The demand is so high that the Piedra Grandes Ramadas does not accept reservation; it is only on first come first serve basis.

Piedra Grandes Ramadas can accommodate groups up to 50 people. However they don't allow amplified music and alcohol permits are to be shown at the time of entry.
