Description

One of Dominica's absolute highlights, Morne Trois Pitons National Park is an evocative landscape of lakes, fumaroles, volcanoes, waterfalls, hot springs, and dense forest. It comprises five vegetation zones, mainly secondary rainforest but reaching up to cloud forest at the highest elevations. It is, in a word, breathtaking.
