Grenada Hiking Trails – Summaries, Hiking Guides & Tour Operators
One of the best Caribbean hiking islands, Grenada offers a number of rain-forest, waterfall, and mountainous hikes. The ‘Spice Island of the Caribbean’ is very mountainous with a number of peaks above 1,500 feet (500m). The tallest peak on Grenada, Mount St. Catherine is 2,760 feet (840m) above sea level, rounding out the twenty highest peaks in the Caribbean.
Grand Etang Lake and National Park, with its iconic Crater Lake and nearby waterfalls and mountain peaks, maybe the most popular hiking destination in Grenada, although there are many other areas on the island to hike through tropical rainforests, and swim in pools at the base of a waterfall. Grenada even has dry scrubland hiking trails in the south. Not to be outdone, Carriacou also has a number of trails worth hiking…
There are more than a dozen hiking trails on the islands. Local Grenada Hiking Guides & Tour Operators who can get you on the trail are listed below…
