GPS Hikes with Satellite Overview in Trinidad and Tobago

[john005]

For those who like to trek thru the bush at times. Just my way of giving back something to our country. Can click on hiker's name for other hiking trips across our lovely country. You can change mode to Satellite for better accurate viewing on top right corner of map. Also can zoom trails with controls to left.

opie, what's the approximate distance from spring bridge@blachisseuse to the paria falls on the trail?

I trying to convince some friends to make the run with me so I want to give them all the details up front....

Yes, in fact, I want to do the Brasso Seco to Blanchesuisse trail. Perfect for mountain biking except a few portions of the trail. The distance
i)Brasso Seco to Paria 7.5 miles , gently undulating trail down to the sea.
ii)Paria to Blanchesuisse 4.5 miles , lots of up and down but not too bad, will have to push bike a couple of spots.

I am hoping to do this trail one of these good days. It has been done before. Maybe we can link up

5.3 miles one way to the falls, day-hike ideal for teenagers. Need to do some training for desk-pushers. Walk with sun-hat and at least 2 liters of water, couple bottles of Gatorade and snacks.

Paria Bay and falls are considered to be the number one hiking destination in Trinidad. The scenic coastal walk starting from the Blanchisseuse Spring Bridge will take two hours to reach the bay. Along the way, an added attraction is to visit Turtle Rock, a fifty foot peninsula that has the appearance of a turtle head. This is an ideal place to relax, take pictures of turtles swimming in the choppy waters and enjoy the refreshing Caribbean Sea Breeze.

The bay half mile long is lined with coconut trees, the silky smooth sand is a favorite nesting ground for leather-back turtles. At the western end, the sea has eroded the rocks to create a dramatic arch called Cathedral Rock. On the eastern end, where the river's mouth is located, the river has lost it's energy and transformed into a lagoon. The vegetation along it's bank consist primarily of red mangrove, the backlash of sea water has deposited sand into the river creating a relaxing fresh water lagoon.The falls from the beach is a fifteen minute walk,heading upstream alongside the river. The plunge pool at the base is wide and perfect for swimming.

5.3 miles not too bad. I made the hike once or twice before but I didn't know the length.

thanks for the info.....
