Description

On this 1 day hiking adventure, I would like to guide you through the island of Martinique. This small but gorgeous island is one of the most preserved hiking spots in the Caribbean islands.

On this full fay hike, I would like to guide you through the northern Caribbean side of Martinique. The program is composed of a half day hiking adventure (about 3 hours) and a half day visit to some very interesting spots on the island.

The northern Caribbean side of Martinique has a very charming and authentic atmosphere. I can pick you up from a number of different places: from Fort-de-France, to Trois Ilets or Sainte Luce. After a 1.5 hours drive, we will reach the end of the road and the beginning of the lush rainforest at the Couleuvre river.

We will then hike in the rainforest where you will get to see an assortment of stunning flora: there are more than 400 hundred species of trees in Martinique, three times as much as in Europe!

At the end of our hike, we will reach a 100-meter high waterfall, with the water running down from a nearby volcano. We will also get to explore the 18th century ruins of a former cocoa and sugar cane plantation, built by some of the island’s first settlers. And finally, we will get to two of the nicest sand and coconut palm tree beaches.

During the drive to northern Martinique (and on the way back), you will have the chance to see a number of other places, including the old city of Saint Pierre, a nice view of the Mount Pelee volcano (1,397m) and some stunning overlooking points. There is even the chance for some rum tasting in the old rum plantation house as well as discovering other beaches and a fisherman’s market.

We can have lunch in St Pierre after the hike or we can plan for a pic nic at the beach.

Martinique is a fantastic place to not just visit but to explore. And on this 1 day hiking adventure, I would like to show you the best the island has to offer, from its beaches and rainforest, to its waterfall and spectacular views. If you would like to join me, all you have to do is send me a request.  

Would like to climb to the summit of the stunning Mont Pelee volcano? If you do, I can take you there on this 1 day trip.

Christopher

We thoroughly enjoyed our hike in the rain forest of Martinique! We'd expected the enjoy the scenery, mostly, but got so much more than that. Fabrice kept us fascinated with the botany of the forest, the history of Martinique, as well as the scenery (of course!). And Fabrice did a great job of setting a pace that was appropriate for everybody's comfort level on the sometimes steep, sometimes slippery trail.
