A very interesting but also demanding trail. Unfortunately we saw few animals. Otherwise pure nature. Costs $5, which is okay. Unfortunately part of our area was closed. Still, it took us 1 1/2 hours. So bring your time! Because part of it was closed, probably for longer - hence only 4 stars.

Lovely hiking trail through the forest and a great place to spot the vincy parrot. Half of the trail is currently still blocked following Beryl but you can reach the viewing platform and return.

A very nice trek. We were told half of the trail was closed due to damages caused by the hurricane. However, we didn't follow the "stop" sign (and the advice of the park warden) and still completed the whole loop. And it was perfectly fine!
