Adventure to Avocat Waterfall & 3 Pools

Details

Join Adventure Seekers on our adventure to Avocat (Marianne) Falls and Three Pools.


We begin at the historical Spring Bridge in the Blanchisseuse Village.

Avocat Falls is only a short drive away from the fishing village of Blanchisseuse, in Trinidad's rugged north coast, which is itself about 1 hour's drive away from Port-of-Spain, and 30 minutes beyond Maracas Beach.

From there we head to the hills up the slopes into the lush green woodlands. This hill is not steep but relatively constant until you reach the top. From there we take it down hill to the base of the river.

Here the excitement begins as we fasten up our life jackets and begin our descent down the Marianne River. The river carves itself to the forest, with numerous pools for swimming and taking a dip. We wade through the river until we come across the Three Pools, where each pool is more fantastic that the next. The cool emerald waters and unique rock formations make this hike aperfect fit for nature loves and water lovers alike.

The fallsat Avocat hang off the walls at the head of this narrowing valley like a brides veil; it's cold clear water thundering into the small basin at it's feet. This is journey's end, and time to join your fellow travelers in a reinvigorating swim.
.
