    Immerse yourself with volcano mud. The smell of sulfuric water is simply bizarre and wild. The trip to get up there is for some, a bit scary but it is on hot spot to visit.

    Nahgie picked us up at the Cruise Port. We drove to the start of the path, and hiked to the Boiling Lake. It was a great (and tough) hike, but Nahgie was really helpful and provided lots of info on both Dominica and the hike it self. After coming back ~8 hours later we went for a swim in the gorge and he dropped us back at our ship. Great tour - can highly recommend Naghie.

    Beware!!!! This hike is much harder than any of the reviews I had read before committing to doing it. I summited Mt Kilimanjaro 11 months prior to this and thought hiking Mt Kili was easier than this Boiling Lake hike. We used a guide provided to us by where we were staying. We started the hike at 8am and didn't get done until 5:20pm. We were fortunate to have overcast skies and only got rained on for a short time near the end of the hike. We only saw 3 other set of people so it was not crowded at all, which was nice. We spent some down time in the Valley of Desolation to rest and play with the mud. We also took some time at the Boiling Lake to eat our lunch. Otherwise, we didn't take the time to bathe in any of the thermal pools as I knew we were running tight on time. I think what made the hike more difficult than Kili was the grade, speed, & wetness. We had to hike at a certain pace to make sure we would get back out before dark. There is a lot of climbing and bouldering - it is not a well defined path for most of the time. The terrain was very wet and slippery, which made it slower going and required more brain power and thought than just a regular one-foot-in-front-of-the-other hike. It was beautiful terrain, an awesome experience, and I'm glad we did it. But I have no desire to do it again. This was a first hike for my boyfriend and even though he is athletic and in shape, we would not have done it had we read more accurate reviews. This is definitely not a hike for beginners. According to my Garmin it was 4.7miles from start to the lake, 9.4mi total. If you feel you can physically handle it, then go for it - it was beautiful and a unique experience. It is a lot more bouldering and climbing than the reviews I had read talked about. I like that, but it does make it more challenging than just a hiking a foot path. Make sure your shoes are sufficient for traction control. Bring a refillable water bottle as you can refill it at multiple places from natural streams. You'll want to bring food or snacks as it will be an all day activity unless you choose to turn back. We chose not to swim in the gorge afterwards because it was way too crowded. Our guide took us to a separate thermal pool nearby afterwards to calm our muscles.
