Gros Piton Hike

The Gros Piton Hike begins with the retrieval of the guests between the times of 6:20 a.m. and 7:15 a.m. From there, they drive through the city of Castries, then up the picturesque Morne Fortune. Guests have their cameras on hand. The drive continues through the Roseau Valley, which has a view of the Banana Plantation. Through two old villages they shall travel, Anse La Raye and Cannaries. Lastly, the guests pass through the town of Soufriere and onto the foot of the mountain, Gros Piton. Each guest is given a bottle of water, a stick and a waiver to sign before commencing the hike. For every four guests one guide is appointed. The first part of the climb is a moderate one. The second half of the climb is strenuous. If the guest is an experienced or fairly good hiker then the climb should take approximately two hours up and two hours down, including all the stops made along the climb.

Hiking the Pitons is one of the top things to do in the Caribbean as an adventurer. Before reaching the mountain, you'll get to pass through towns and villages; one of them being 200 year old town! The hike is a moderate to strenuous one that lasts about 4 hours which gives an opportunity to see the island from a bird's eye view.
