St. Kitts’ Mount Liamuiga on hot list of world’s volcanoes
St. Kitts’ Mount Liamuiga has been included in a hot list of volcanoes to confront by foot, bicycle, car or even snowboard.
In an article entitled: “Hiking into Hell: Volcano trekking Spots,” Shira Levine writes on Fox News Travel section, that at nearly 4,000 feet the steep incline to reach Mount Liamuiga’s crater is one of the most challenging of the 18 volcanoes dotting the Caribbean.
The circular hike up inactive volcano takes about 2.5 to 3 hours each way, and the journey passes through the rain forest where banyan, viper, fern and bamboo trees thicken a canopy of trees reaching 100 feet.
