Fontainbleu Falls
Hike Directions

The entire distance of the hike is about six
miles and will take about four to six hours
depending on your pace. You end the walk in
Concord on the central western coast of
Grenada, which is about a 20-minute bus ride
back to St. George's.

e To start, take the Number 6 bus from the
St. George’s bus station to the Grand Etang
visitor area.

¢ The trail to Mt. Qua Qua and
Concord Falls trail is about 200
meters to the west (towards St.
George’s) and on the north side of
the road.

¢ The trailhead sign says “Mt.
Qua Qua and Concord Falls”. This
will be the last sign you see that
mentions Concord Falls.

¢ The trail to Concord Falls
branches off of the Mt. Qua Qua
trail about three-quarters of the
way up to the Mt. Qua Qua sum-
mit. It took us about 45 minutes
of brisk walking to reach the
Concord Falls turn-off.

¢ The trail to Concord Falls is
unmarked and takes off from a
small cleared spot and is an obvi-
ous trail that heads to the west (left
if you are on the trail facing Mt.
Qua Qua). This trail gets less use
than the trail to Mt. Qua Qua and
consequently is more overgrown,
but it is still a defined trail. The
Concord Falls trail descends from
the ridge top heads north and follows a gully.

¢ As you proceed downhill two trails will enter
from the right. At trail intersections your choice

¢ The gully gathers more water and becomes
an active creek, which you will cross several
times. After about an hour’s walk from the Mt.
Qua Qua trail, you will reach a point where
steps have been cut into a steep rock face.
Descend the steps, then continue to follow the
trail for a few minutes and you will be at a
stream crossing.

e After the stream there will be a short steep
climb and you will intersect the trail from Concord
Falls to Fontainbleu Falls.

¢ Turn left to get to Fontainbleu Falls. The trail
will move into the riverbed and it takes about ten
minutes to Fontainbleu Falls.

¢ Reverse your track down the riverbed and
