We climbed last week on vacation, first time to Nevis (2 couples, 40ish years old). After reading the reviews we were unsure whether to use a guide and just how hard it would be. We took a guide (which was worth it) and found it a bit harder than expected. The view at the to is amazing, the trail is very narrow and filled with roots, ruts and rocks. Quite steep in some places where they ahve ropes attached to help. You end up on your butt at times, your shoes will be caked in mud as well as your hands from ropes and roots. Need to be in reasonable shape, it takes 2+ hours up and back down and you will be sore the next day. A great 1/2 day experience.

Peak havenWe rode the ferry from St. Kitts to Nevis for the day and went up to Peak Haven for lunch. The view was awesome and it was very peaceful and relaxing. There was a playground for the kids and a few games that Herbert showed the kids how to play. They also offers many tours, but we didn't have time since we were only on Nevis for around 6 hours. If you are pressed for time, I would advise calling ahead to order your lunch as it did take a while for our lunch to be prepared. We looked around while waiting, but we were there a while and weren't able to squeeze in everything we wanted while visiting Nevis. We weren't sorry we went, but I didn't realize how much time I needed to allow for the trip up and lunch. It was a 45 min to an hour drive from Charleston and it was a lot of travel time in one day since we also were on the ferry for approximately an hour each way. I would love to visit again and do the hike up to Nevis peak.

Run by the knowledgeable, conscientious and charming Mr Herbert, this place serves good food in a friendly way with a great view.

This hidden place up a track is hard to find and impossible to miss!! It leads up the mountain and has a garden and cafe which are both lovely and surprising, the 'owner is kind and thoughtful, the ambience is a throwback to the island as it once was.Closed on Sunday and Monday , which is a shame .

We traveled up to Peak Heaven and called several times to no avail before learning that it is closed. They have been experiencing management changes (we were told by locals) and it is uncertain when (or if) it will open again. I just wanted people to be aware before they wasted hours of their time like we did.

We were in St. Kitt's Nevis in July and the weather is hot and humid, but at Peak Heaven, the wind blows, the balmy mixes with the breeze and the shade and it is sublime. In addition to being an absolutely beautiful spot, with interesting gardens and design and wonderfully hand crafted elements throughout including games for the children, the views are spectacular and peaceful... but the icing on the cake is that the service is incredibly hospitable and the food is delicious. Truly, the food was outstanding and such a treat out in the open air, overlooking the Caribbean and the Island of St. Kitts, the place was amazing. Goats came through while we were there and we've heard that sometimes you see monkeys! It's amazing that you look down to the sea and then look up into the jungle-like mountain top surrounded by clouds and all of the while feel at home in this little bit of Heaven! The experience was so intimate, wonderful wonderful! You must go!

great if you have kids, they can run around and explore

Go here to get a REAL idea of what island living was like in the 18th century. It is also the farther place up the mountain you can drive to. Trails up into the rainforest are right there.

That's what we were told by two taxi people, but ... we did see the sign. I see that there are no reviews after May,2013. We wanted to check it out on our own, but time didn't permit. If it is still there, the sign is very hard to see. It's at a road located immediately to the NE of the Gingerland Police station.

We opted to take 'the Bush tea and village hike' which was a gentle amble with Edward Herbert to show us the remains of the Rawlins Estate where his family had lived in years gone by. He also showed and told us about the various plants that have been used for years in Bush Teas and for healing. It was really interesting, but sadly we have now forgotten most of it, maybe it would be useful if anyone going on the tour could take away a print out with some of the botanical information so as to remember it. There is also a small museum and an example of living accommodation in years gone by.After the walk we piloted a new idea of the family, a ride on a donkey, my husband and I both felt a bit silly doing this, but as there was only us and the Herbert family we decided to trail it for them. I'm sure that any children going on the tour will love it as well as there being some sort of adventure playground. After this it was time to sit down to a wonderful freshly cooked lunch and a cold bush tea punch, followed by the chance to sample various bush teas. The views from the restaurant were wonderful, panoramic. Make sure you take your camera. Edward and his beautiful wife and daughter were so friendly and full of interesting information, we could have talked to them for hours, the time we spent there seemed to go so quickly and all too soon we were collected by the taxi driver to take us back to our hotel.it was worth sacrificing a morning on the beach to absorb some history and folklore in this beautiful place. Shame the tourist office or government on the island are not willing to invest money in preserving and developing Peak Heaven as part of Nevis's national heritage.
