This Caribbean Island Is Back From the Brink—and Ready to Share Its Treasures With the World

"A beautiful natural site featuring twin cascades, where visitors can sit on rocks and enjoy the refreshing waters."

"An easy, 10-minute trail leads to these paired cascades on the west side of the mammoth Morne Trois Pitons National Park—the higher, lefthand fall is known as Father (279 feet) and the smaller as Mother (131 feet). While the path stops at the viewing platform, visitors often descend and bathe in the pools, moving cautiously over the slippery rocks."

Easy and short hike to Mother and Father falls. Astonishingly beautiful. There is a thermal spring up near the base of the Father. You do not need a guide but they are available on the viewing platform if you wish. Amazing place.

We had only a short window to visit this. But worth the time and energy to visit. Breath taking view of the twin waterfalls. We were able to get great pictures. It is a very short walk for just about anyone to take. There are a few spots close to the edge that could be risky for picture taking. Parking is tight depending on the time you go. Plan for sporadic rain most of the year.

Nice view but besides that not much to do there, after climbing up you are done in like 5 minutes. A much better option is to hike from Laudat, after visiting the Titou Gorge. If you are there by cruise, catch a cab to Titou Gorge and hike your way back down. A cab one way to Laudat is about 30 US. The view of the falls along the way are stunning. If you decide to hike through Golgota path make sure you have the right shoes, after the rain it might be very slippery and muddy, we used swimming shoes. Especially climbing down the hill is challenging. See after the yellow-blue hike marks, since the path might be tricky to spot at some points. This hike will be difficult for the inexperienced, in that case simply go back once the asphalt ends. You will still get amazing views. The mentioned hike is not visible on Google, but easy to see on maps.me. I tried to add it but got some strange error messages.

We went on a Friday afternoon. There was no line. The walk up to the view point was relatively easy for me. The view was gorgeous.

Fun short walk through the jungle with a bunch of lizards. You can boulder your way to the base of the falls, but it isn't easy. Great view of the falls for those not wanting to climb. We were there for 45 mins and enjoyed climbing around and playing in the river. $5 entry fee.

If you purchased a national park pass or are going to see other sites, I would visit. If this is the only thing you would potentially see included in the pass, I am not sure then. It is a cool waterfall only a short hike from parking lot.

Beautiful view of the Trafalgar Falls. To get to the view is long walk up some steep flight of nature stairs that can be slippery so please be careful.

Very nice! Not as easy of a walk as some state but the steps are wide/deep. Fee was nominal
