Seven-Hour Foraging Hike in Dominica: Middleham Falls, Ti Tou Gorge, Hot Springs

The guide on this seven-hour day is a local island forager and naturopath, and the walk is built around that. Wild plants are identified along the trail, local history comes with them, and naturopathy wellness advice is part of the booking. It is a hiking day for small parties: a maximum of three travelers. The route starts at Middleham Falls. Small waterfalls line the trail, and the falls themselves can be swum under, with several natural pools nearby. Next is Ti Tou Gorge: the group crosses the river and swims into narrow gorges to an interior waterfall and a small hot-water waterfall. The day ends at the Ti Kwen Glo Cho hot springs, with sulphur pools that can be alternated with cold waterfalls, and a small zoo with some of the island's animals. Lunch is not included, and neither is transport, which is limited to 3 passengers and costs from 30 to 60 euros depending on distance. The meeting point is the car park beside the sign that marks the start of the hike. Moderate fitness is needed. The day is not recommended for children under 5, pregnant travelers, travelers with spinal injuries or poor cardiovascular health. Guiding is in English or French.
