From Vieux Fort,the road meanders north along St. Lucia`s spectacular Eastern Coastline, where the Atlantic Ocean vents itself on rocky cliffs. The 33-mile drive back to Castries takes you through the villages of Micoud and Dennery and across the Barre de L`Isle mountainrange.

Just north of Micoud, on the road to Mahaut, are the La Tille Waterfalls, situated in an organic garden.

Mahaut is the beginning of two of the Forestry Department´s hiking trails. The long rainforest hike runs from Mahaut across the breathe of the  island´s  forest reserve to

Fond St. Jacques in Soufriere and the circular Descartiers trail, a four-mile meander through natural rainforest with spectacular lookout points. There is lots to see including the St. Lucia Parrot..
