Waitukubuli Section 1

17/5/2016

So my newly discovered Volcanologist friend Dr Rob Watt asked me along to do section 1 of the Waitukubuli Trail (I know no real order to how I finish) so I decided why not, 2 people is fine! And on an island which is like 75% volcano I am bound to learn something right? Section one starts with a very steep hike upwards (avoiding a landslide) but then it opens up onto an old french plantation which is very picturesque! With a great view down onto Scotts Head. En route I also managed to learn a lot about the local volcanoes including the most recent eruption of Morne Potate 500 years ago. A relatively short and sweet little hike, but another one knocked off the list!
