Random Hike

Boiling Lake
The most famous of Dominica's trails, this flooded fumarole is reached after a hard 3-4 hour hike (one-way). But it's well worth it - the Lake is a cauldron of bubbling greyish-blue water that is usually enveloped in a cloud of vapour. View our Boiling Lake Slideshow! Though the most frequently used trail starts from the village of Laudat, there are other trails to the lake from the villages of Morne Prosper and Grand Fond. Read our Boiling Lake Guestbook!
