Adventure Dominica
Waterfall Super Fest
Dominica being the land of waterfalls, we have decided to treat you to a waterfall fest.
Yes off we go up the transinsular road winding our way to
start the hike to our first two waterfalls the "Spanny Falls"
We begin by hiking through a banana field then blending into the rainforest and
descend into a river valley to behold our first fall.
Moving on, we begin to ascend a steep ridge, using the aid of large roots to assist us,
we get to the top and descend into another valley to see our second fall
Back to the vehicle we go in search of our third fall the Alvon Falls.
This one is a real scramble down ridge but guess what? it only takes 10 minutes to
climb
down and what you see will be worth it.
So we move on again, heading for the Emerald Pool located in the Rainforest of the
Morne Trois National Park.
15 minutes of relatively easy walking through the rainforest gets us there.
The Emerald Pool is in a unique rainforest setting, taking a dip will not be a bad idea.
Again we move on seeking our final waterfall, the Sari Sari, we are on our way to the
village of Laplaine in the South East.
This time we hike up the Sari Sari River Gorge adumbrated by the canopy of the lush
rainforest above us we trudge along.
Sari Sari at last, we maneuver our way to its base and plunge in for a swim.
This completes our waterfall super fest, back to the vehicle again and homeward
bound.
Time 6 - 7 hours
