The most popular areas in Grenada for hiking and trekking is undoubtedly the rainforest around the Grand Etang Forest Reserve, high up in the mountains of the island’s interior. Grand Etang’s flora includes towering mahogany and giant gommier trees as well as a multitude of ferns, tropical flowers, and other indigenous plants. The lush vegetation provides shelter for a wide variety of animals, particularly for the island’s many species of birds. The broad winged hawk, Lesser Antillean swift, Antillean euphonia, purple throated carib, Antillean crested hummingbird and the Lesser Antillean tanager (known as the soursop) are all common sights. In addition, Grand Etang is populated by plenty of frogs and lizards, as well as playing host to opossums, armadillos, mongoose, and the Mona monkey.

Clarke’s Court Rum Distillery is a "must see" for all visitors, the island’s best-known and largest distillery and one of the most interesting historical sites. The factory has been in operation since 1937 and is situated in the southern part of the island. When you arrive you would be welcomed by a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide, who will explain the history and all the different processes and stages of making fine rum. You would learn of the distilling process from sugar cane, syrup and molasses, to rum, and also the aging, blending and bottling processes of making rum. On the tour you would also get the opportunity to discover old steam engines, some dating as far back as 1886. The tour of the factory lasts about fifteen minutes, after which you would be escorted to our Hospitality Center, where you will see our unique Barrel Furniture and an interesting display of the Clarke’s Court products. You are invited to sample award-winning rums at the sample bar.
