Reviews
As I found myself in Grenada on my own for a weekend during a work trip, I booked a last minute hike to Black Rock Falls through trip advisor, and won the lottery by getting Vaughn and his Tropical Adventures as my guide.
Vaughn picked me up at my hotel, and true to the previous reviews, adapted the planned tour to my preferences. Rather than going to black rock falls, he suggested another destination that involved a slightly longer hike, but which is what I had been hoping for anyway. It worked out that the upper Concord Falls excursion was the same price so we headed there instead, and it was amazing.
It should be said that the main falls at the parking lot are nice enough and reasonably accessible, complete with gift shops and caged monkeys :( , but if you continue up a not-so-beaten path 45 minutes or so you will not be disappointed.
At the end of a very leafy, muddy, scramble-y hike which involves several river crossings (your shoes will get both filthy and soaked so be prepared) you are rewarded by a stunning, wild waterfall in a cascade cathedral-like enclave with vegetation-covered cliff walls and trees reaching to the sky, with a deep pool perfect for a relaxing swim in what feels like an ancient spiritual place.
Along the way, and if you’re interested, Vaughn will share his knowledge of the history and the now of Grenada, and of the flora and fauna, including birds. I don’t know about birds, but if you’re into birding, I think Vaughn is your guy.
With zero hesitation: would highly recommend!
I would recommend this to anyone who likes the outdoors and hiking.
P.S. Of note there is mud on the trails and they can be steep at times, moreover there a few fast moving streams that need to be crossed (your shoes will be completely submerged). If that is not the experience you are looking for then this might not be for you.
