Your Morne Trois Pitons National Park day trip starts with pickup by minivan at your Roseau hotel followed by the 30-minute drive through the Roseau Valley to the park.
Your first destination inside the park is Freshwater Lake. With your guide, take a walk around the often-misty lake and learn a bit about the native plant and animal life. Then head to Titou Gorge via the mountain village of Laudat; when you arrive at the gorge, which translates to ‘little throat,’ enjoy 45 minutes of swimming (with a lifejacket) through the gorge to a small waterfall.
Next, take a break to enjoy a boxed lunch, and then head to one of the park’s most popular features, Emerald Pool, a scenic, one-hour drive through the dense rainforest. A natural pool formed at the base of a 40-foot (12-meter) waterfall, Emerald Pool boasts a secluded, lush setting perfect for a swim! Hang out here for a bit before making the drive back to your Roseau hotel, where your day trip ends.
