at the beautiful ebony cliff-side, formed years ago. A truly majestic
scene as the sea crashes onto the rocks.

at the top of Mount Liamuiga

trail to the top of Mount Liamuiga near St. Pauls. Entering the
rain forest is like opening the door to a world of cool wonder and
mistery. At the lower part of the trail, one finds large old mango
trees reminding us that these were once sugar cane fields. Higher
up, the trees form a canopy, which creates the lush tropical atmosphere.
Cabbage palms, giant fern trees and mahogany. A great site for tree
lovers. Once you reach the top of the rainforest, you can hike down
into the crater and explore the interesting terrain.
St.
Kitts and Nevis are renowned for the green vervet monkeys. These
playful creatures are a delight to observe as they search for food,
climb trees or sit and watch their human visitors.
Brimstone
Hill Historic Fort
Brimstone
Hill was named after the sulfur in the cliffs that lead up to the
Fort. It is the second largest historic Fort in the region. This
massive Fort covers 38 acres and rises almost 800 feet above the
sea level. It was designed by british military engineers and build
by African slaves. The construction began in 1690. The Fort is steeped
in history. This treasured heritage site, which once was a coveted
prize for the British and French is a major attraction. The Citadel
which is structurally and architecturally of world significance,
has remained virtually intact. Buildings have been skillfully reconstructed,
restored and adapted, and now accommodate a Canteen, Gift Shop and
Visitor's Center.
Interesting
museum displays, and audio-visual presentation on the history and
development of the Fort, well maintained structures coupled with
breathtaking vistas and a serene atmosphere make Brimstone Hill
more than just another Fort.
