Mount Saint Catherine
Grenada's highest peak at 840 meters, an old volcanic remnant covered in primary rainforest. It is the island's most challenging hiking route.
Mount Saint Catherine is the highest point in Grenada, an ancient rainforest-covered volcano. Climbing it from the northern Victoria side or from Mount Hope on the east takes about 4-6 hours round trip. The route is steep, muddy and poorly marked, so hiring a local guide is strongly recommended. The summit is often shrouded in clouds, but on clear days you can see the whole island and the Grenadines. It suits experienced hikers, and climbing during the rainy season is not recommended.
