Hiking The Gros Piton Belongs On Your Saint Lucia Bucket List!

If you are looking for a beautiful yet extremely challenging hike in Saint Lucia, then I highly recommend Gros Piton! Gros Piton is a volcanic mountain and you can do this 3.2 mile hike but only with a guide so make sure you book your reservation before going. It takes most people between 3-6 hours one way because it gets pretty steep. After completing the hike and witnessing the most beautiful views, I can absolutely assure you that this hike belongs on your Saint Lucia bucket list!

The hike was rough for me because it got very hot and sunny but I persevered thanks to some gummy bears from our guide. Check out my favorite photos from the hike!

This photo was taken about halfway through the hike. I really enjoyed the fact that there were several places to rest and take photos along the way.

I felt so accomplished once we reached the top because it was so challenging!

Fun fact, the most common beer in Saint Lucia is the Piton beer so you better believe we drank one when we finished the hike!
