The islands of Trinidad and Tobago lie just off the coast of Venezuela in the north of South America. Tobago is much smaller and rests to the northeast of Trinidad.
The Main Ridge mountain range runs through the spine of the island, and is cloaked in tropical rainforest.
Established all the way back in 1776, the Main Ridge Forest Reserve is actually the oldest protected forest reserve in the world.
A network of trails wind and zigzag their way through the mountain, with some offering beginners a great way to explore, while others are more demanding yet rewarding.
If you’re up for more of a challenge, then join me and reach the peak of the island at Pigeon Peak, which rises to approximately 385 meters above sea level.
It’s located on the eastern edge of the Main Ridge Forest Reserve and is also one of the most attractive peaks on the island.
Get to grips with nature’s wilder side as you traverse the unmarked, overgrown and challenging trails.
First follow an old plantation road cutting through the hillside, before a steep incline brings you into the rainforest that culminates at the stunning summit of Pigeon Peak.
Glimpse the vibrant flora and fauna that spread out across the territory. Slithering snakes and lizards, geckos and soaring white-tailed sabrewing hummingbird, which is rare to the region.
Hanging bats and digging armadillos are also home to the island of Tobago, which despite its small size is a key spot for unique biodiversity.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
