World Heritage Site in Dominica, in the Caribbean

About Morne Trois Pitons National Park

The name of the park translates to "Mountains of Three Peaks". In the park you find unspoiled forest hard to access. The park is most famous for the Valley of Desolation with its geysers and mud lakes. However, there's much more than that in the park — including water falls and lakes with crystal clear water. The national park was just a forest area in 1940, since 1952 a forest reserve and since 1975 a national park — the first one on Dominica. In 1997 UNESCO declared the park a world heritage site. Today Morne Trois Pitons comprises an area of 6800 hectares, six signposted hiking paths complete with picnic sites and rain covers. There are four former volcanoes in the park. Morne Trois Pitons itself has a height of 1342 m. From its peak the distance to the sea is about 8 km. Morne Watt rea
