Guests have their cameras on hand. The drive continues through the Roseau Valley, which has a view of the Banana Plantation. Through two old villages they shall travel, Anse La Raye and Cannaries. Lastly, the guests pass through the town of Soufriere and onto the foot of the mountain, Gros Piton. Each guest is given a bottle of water, a stick and a waiver to sign before commencing the hike. For every four guests one guide is appointed. The first part of the climb is a moderate one. The second half of the climb is strenuous. If the guest is an experienced or fairly good hiker then the climb should take approximately two hours up and two hours down, including all the stops made along the climb.
