Hiking and Walking in Dominica

Nearly 300 miles of footpaths open up to some of Dominica's most spectacular sceneries and make this island a haven for hikers and nature-lovers. In almost every part of the country, trails weave their way into gorges and across valleys, climbing up to 4,000 foot mountains.

Whatever your level of fitness there is a trail just right for you, each with a spectacular attraction at its conclusion.

Novice hikers will discover that a relaxing fifteen minute stroll to the Trafalgar Falls reveals photographic vistas of a dense rainforest, twin cascades, warm pools, and rushing streams.

For the average hiker, journeys to the Penrice, Middleham, Sari Sari, and Victoria Falls would be simply enchanting, and for the hardcore backpacker, the hours of trekking to attractions like the Perdu Temp, Boiling Lake, Morne Diablotin, or through the Waitukubuli trail would be a fitting challenge.
