Anse La Raye Falls

Everyone knows about the glorious Pitons but did you know that just behind the village is some of the most beautiful scenery on the island? Go through the village past the Hess School with its large playground, into the countryside beyond. Go past the thick carpets of sweet smelling ginger and anthirium lilies, the children fishing in the river for small fish and crayfish and on your right is a deep water pool in which you are allowed to bathe.

A further 10 minutes inland takes you to a small green banana shed, alongside which is a well tended trail. If you take a small turn right down the hill, over the craggy rocks and step over a series of river stones you will soon find yourself at the base of the Anse La Raye waterfall. As this is the water intake for the village bathing here is strictly prohibited, but the scenery is stunning and well worth the short walk along the trail.
