The hike starts at Titou Gorge and takes you across the breakfast river to the top of Morne Nicholls. It is a spectacular view! Then down Morne Nicholls to the Valley of Desolation!

Just did the Boiling Lake hike, it was incredible. The trip is only about 7 miles round trip, can be done in 2 1/2 to 3 hours each way without a lot of rests. My guide told me there are 7,000 stairs, but the stairs are the least of your challenges. The near vertical climb out of the Valley of... more

This hike is not for the weekend warrior however and does require a moderate to excellent level of fitness as it involves about 6 hours of hiking up and down mountains. The payoff? Stunning views of one of the last remaining oceanic island rainforests in the... more

During our honeymoon to Dominica, my wife and I made it to the Boiling Lake and back on 12/19/06. It was extremely difficult for us. Also quite rewarding. However, do not be fooled by the phamphlet that lists a zillion things to do while in Dominica. Right after the number 1 thing to do-trying a Kubuli beer (A brilliant suggestion)... more
