Hiking
To reach the Gros Piton Nature Trail from any location in Praslin, first, take a boat or ferry to Saint Lucia. Once on Saint Lucia, head towards Soufrière, which is the nearest town to the Gros Piton. You can take a local bus from the ferry terminal in Castries to Soufrière. Once you arrive in Soufrière, look for signs directing you to Gros Piton. The trailhead is located on an unnamed road near Fond Doux. It is advisable to ask locals for directions to the exact starting point of the hike, as it may not be well-marked. The hike itself is about 4 kilometers and offers stunning views, but ensure you have sufficient water and wear appropriate hiking gear.
