Hike to Anse La Roche Beach in Carriacou, Caribbean

Feb 16, 2022
Music: https://www.bensound.com Website: https://roamingspices.com/anse-la-roche-beach/ Getting to the Starting Point We jumped aboard a number 10 bus to the island’s largest town, Hillsborough. Here we caught a number 11 bus to the junction of Bogles and Prospect. This is the recognised starting point for the short hike to Anse La Roche Beach. Tip: There are two main bus routes from the main town of Hillsborough, one that runs north to Windward and one that runs south to Tyrrel Bay. The buses run daily from 07:00 until sunset. Hiking to Anse La Roche Beach The starting point of the hike is on a sharp right bend in the road where you will see a wooden information board. The initial section of the High North Nature Trail is on paved road which soon turns to dirt but which remains relatively flat and even under foot. The trail meanders through the peaceful woods on the western fringes of the High North National Park. You simply follow this road for approximately 30 minutes. Thankfully, there are plenty of signs indicating that the turn off to Anse La Roche is up ahead. The actual sign that indicates the turn off from the dirt road is far from obvious, is attached to a tree about four metres above the ground and could easily be missed. Once you have taken the track off to your left, the trail becomes far narrower as it winds its way down through the woods. The downward gradient soon steepens and you now catch glimpses of the turquoise sea as well as Union Island off to the north. You will then reach a fork in the path. Turn right and in a short while the white sand of Anse La Roche Beach will appear through the woods.
