Middleham Falls

Hidden deep within the lush rainforest of Morne Trois Pitons National Park on the Caribbean island of Dominica lies Middleham Falls — one of the island’s most dramatic and rewarding adventures. The waterfall itself cascades from a lofty height — around 70 m (≈230 ft). Surrounding the falls is dense rainforest: giant hardwoods like gommier and chatannyé, towering tree ferns, thick mosses and bromeliads cling to steep slopes. Expect an ascent from roughly 20 minutes up before descending to the falls. The trail includes rocky, muddy sections, often with many wooden steps and stream crossings. Most hikers can expect to take around 1.5 - 2 hrs to complete the hike. Difficulty: Generally rated as moderate.

Morne Trois Pitons National Park

High in the cloud-shrouded heart of Dominica’s Morne Trois Pitons National Park lies Freshwater Lake, the island’s largest lake and one of its most tranquil and otherworldly landscapes. Cradled by emerald-green hills nearly 2,500 feet (≈750 m) above sea level, the lake feels like a world apart — cool, misty, and utterly serene, a refreshing contrast to the island’s warm coastal zones. reshwater Lake occupies an ancient volcanic crater, part of Dominica’s UNESCO World Heritage–listed park. Its mirror-like surface reflects ever-changing moods: deep blue under clear skies, silver-gray when the mountain mist rolls in, and sometimes completely veiled by clouds so dense you can feel the moisture in the air.
