St. Lucia Rainforest Adventure: Aerial Tram, Hike & Zipline
Overview
Step into one of St. Lucia’s most remarkable natural settings, where lush tropical rainforest, panoramic views, and a dose of adrenaline come together in one experience.
Explore the protected Castries Waterworks Forest Reserve from three completely different perspectives. Glide peacefully above the canopy aboard the Aerial Tram, then step beneath the trees on a guided rainforest hike, getting closer to the plants, wildlife, and ecosystem surrounding you.
Then turn up the adrenaline on the Canopy Zipline Course, featuring 8 lines and 16 platforms that take you right through the treetops.
Along the way, your naturalist guide brings the rainforest to life with insights into this unique ecosystem. By the end, you’ll have experienced the same rainforest from above the canopy, beneath the trees, and flying right through them — three perspectives that reveal a completely different side of St. Lucia.

Begin your adventure with convenient transportation into St. Lucia’s lush rainforest, when included with your booking. Hotel transportation is available only from Castries and Marigot Bay.
