What a treasure Saint John is when it comes to Hiking and most of the trails are located within the VI National Park.  Choose a trail that’s right for you:  easy, moderate, or difficult.  One thing is for sure, you will be immersed in the natural wonders of tropical rainforests, history, plants and wildlife surrounding you as you explore Saint John on foot.

Most important advice, please wear closed toed footwear and reef-safe sunscreen, and bring a hat and lots of water.  If you are feeling like a dare devil, head straight to the Reef Bay Trail where you’ll hike down to the old Rum Factory ruins and the iconic Petroglyphs carvings and waterfall, or take the Francis Bay Nature Trail for a meandering stroll on the Boardwalk along the beach as you will enjoy bird watching, tropical wild flowers, and discovering the unique wildlife along the way, although be careful of the hermit crabs.

Many of the hikes are near the beaches, so remember your bathing suit and snorkel gear because there is nothing like jumping in the crystal blue waters of Saint John during or after a hike.
