hike up a ridge to see a whole half of the island

there are a handful of ridge hikes over the island that take you to the summit of the mountain to reveal a whole side of the island for you to enjoY! this activity clearly will take a good amount of effort and commitment, and can be dangerous.

be sure to honestly assess your physical ability before starting. we have had many hiking fatalities and even more hiking rescues, even in the “easy” trails. don’t underestimate nature! use wisdom and care when hiking.

If you’re decided you’re ready, bring a lot of water, grippy shoes, a hat, sunscreen, bug spray, a light jacket or a towel, and a change of clothes. I’ll list my favourite ridge hikes from most to least accessible.
