Grand Etang Lake
This lake is located within the crater of the volcano that formed the island of Grenada. Surrounded by dense forest, it serves as a central point for nature observation and hiking. It is a significant national symbol and is featured on the national coat of arms.
Getting There
The lake is located in the interior highlands, away from the coast. From St. George's city centre, you can reach the site by car or taxi. The drive typically takes about 45 to 60 minutes, depending on road conditions and traffic.
Duration of Visit
Visitors generally spend between 2 and 4 hours at the site. This allows time to walk around the perimeter of the lake and explore the surrounding forest trails.
