Hike the trail
A 45-minute drive takes you to the Syndicate Nature Trail, located in Morne Diablotin National Park. On the hour-long, gentle trail, you’ll head through lush forest that’s home to native birds such as Red-necked Amazon Parrots, and the emblematic sisserou, or Imperial Amazon Parrot.
After completing the trail, we’ll head to the café for refreshments before taking the 15-minute hike to Milton Falls. These secluded falls tumble some 100 ft into an alluring rock pool surrounded by verdant rainforest. Jump in for a revitalising swim if you please.
