Freshwater Lake
Located 2,500 feet above sea level, this is
the largest of Dominica’s four lakes. You
can walk the trails around the lake - the
view is spectacular. It may be best to take
a guide with you on this trek.

Papillote Tropical
Gardens
Amidst the seemingly tangled growth
is a magnificent garden initially
created by Anne Jno Baptiste, in 1967.
The 10-acre garden consists of trails,
hot mineral streams, mosses, ferns,
orchids and other plants all carefully
labelled. Tour guides are available to
aid the experience.
