Ti Tou Gorge & Trafalgar Falls


We drive through the capital city Roseau to the Botanical Gardens and up the lush and verdant Roseau Valley. There will be stops at scenic locations until we reach the village of Laudat.

From Laudat we take a 15-minute walk to the Ti Tou Gorge. TiTou Gorge is one of the most fascinating places in the Caribbean, for as its Creole name implies "little throat hole", you have an opportunity to literally swim up the "throat" of the mountain to a waterfall located inside the gorge. This gorge was formed many thousands of years ago and is fed by the Freshwater Lake. The formation of the rock walls on either side, through which we swim are intricate and breathtaking, this place is truly one of the wonders of Dominica.

After the gorge we walk back to the vehicle and proceed to the spectacular twin Trafalgar Falls. It is a 15-minute walk from where the vehicle stops, to the viewing area of the falls. Trafalgar falls offers the able bodied (under the supervision of the guide) the contrast of a refreshing cool water bath in the pools underneath the cascading waterfalls or a warm and therapeutic bath under the hot mineral springs. After the falls walk back to the vehicle and return to base.

Time 3-4 hours

Note: Recommended footwear: Sneakers, Bathing suits should be worn; shorts and T-Shirts are appropriate.
