a trip Seven Sisters Waterfall. (It is called
Seven Sisters because there are a succession of
seven falls. Also called St. Margaret Falls.)
Located in heart of Grand Etang Rainforest.
On
this excursion you will:
First Travelgrenada's
representative will welcome you on
arrival from the cruise ship or hotel.
- We stop for refreshments and souvenirs at Amba Kaila Spice Place.
From St. George's your
journey takes you up through steep
winding roads up to the rainforest peak.
1900 ft above sea level. You then make
your descent to Grand Etang.
From Grand Etang you
continue to make your descent further to
Seven Sisters.
Your hike starts at Seven
Sisters. This is not a very difficult
hike but it will take 25 minutes before
you get to the waterfalls. The hike and
it will take you through a private
plantation where you will get the chance
to see cocoa, nutmeg and banana trees and
how they are grown. Flora and fauna grow
abundantly.
You will also pass through
the rain forest to get there. If it has
rained recently, the trail can get a
little muddy, so it is advisable to wear
something you are not particularly fond
of. Of course, when the trail is muddy,
it is also a lot more fun. Don't worry
though, because when you finally get to
the falls, you will be able to wash some
of the trail off of your shoes.
Once there, you can swim
or relax by the water. The pools at the
foot of the falls are quite big, and the
swimming is very refreshing as the water
is cool.
After your cooling swim
you will change and then make your way to
the historical parish of St. Patrick's to
stop for Lunch at Pavillion Restaurants.
Then back to cruise ship
or hotel.
Restrooms are
available at the Grand Etang Visitors Centre.
