hampstead nature trail

 


You will have a wonderful adventure on this activity. You will walk, taste and shop, enjoy local herbal tea and cakes and then swim on one of the eleven un-spoilt beaches in the parish. This is part of the essence of having a holiday in Grenada and hiking with us in St David’s. 

GETTING THERE AND BACK On the way to Hampstead you will be taken along the scenic route entering from the ‘top road’. You will be taken through St. Paul’s, Windsor Forest, Vincennes, Providence, Thebaide and Hampstead. Your return journey will be via the Eastern Main Road through La Sagesse, Corinth, Red Gate, Westerhall, and on to St. Georges.

THE HIKE is an enjoyable one going uphill. Looking back you can see the wonderful vista of Hampstead Great House. We pass a delightful small stream flowing through nutmegs groves and getting a magnificent view of St David’s while hiking.

TASTE & SHOP You then go on to Hampstead Tropical Blends an agro processing plant that is part of Hampstead Estate. Here you will find juices, jams, syrups, wines and ice-cream all produced from local fruits grown on Hampstead Estate.

TEA & CAKES The next stop is in La Tante to have tea and cakes at the Tea Room. Here you can have a cup of local herbal tea, cakes and pastries You will also get a selection of local fruit, mangoes, pawpaw, guava, golden apple or whatever is in season at the time of your holiday.
