Hiking
Hiking through St Lucia's central rainforests and preserves is the best way to experience the island's fabulously beautiful interior ; despite being laced by walkable trails, the mountains often go unexplored by beach devotees. You don't necessarily need guides for many of the hikes (though hiring one will help to identify local flora and fauna), but you do need advance permission and an inexpensive permit from the Forestry and Lands Department to enter protected areas such as the Edmund Forest Reserve and the Barre de L'Isle area.
