Try our full-day, Volcano Safari, and experience a rugged hiking adventure that offers unparalleled scenic opportunities of our beautiful island home, as well as an exciting off-road, cross country drive.
After picking you up from your hotel or cruise ship we drive for about an hour from the Basseterre area, following the coastal road past Brimstone Hill National Park. At Belmont Estate, on the far side of the island, we leave the coast road and travel up through swaying fields of sugar cane, to the trail head, at 1100 feet above the sea.
On arriving at the trail head we eventually hike through the lush, protected rainforest of the Central Forest Reserve, to the Volcano Craters rim, 2800 feet above the sea. This high mountain area lies cloaked in a dwarfed cloud forest and overlooks what is often called a "Giants Salad Bowl", the islands volcano crater, one thousand feet deep and almost a mile wide.
