Carbet Falls

Its three cascades are set amid the tropical rainforests on the lower slopes of the volcano La Soufrière.

Visitors reach the cascade by a long, steep trail at an elevation of 900 m (3,000 ft).

The source of the Carbet River is located another 2 km (1.2 mi) upstream from the first cascade, at an elevation of 1,300 m (4,300 ft).

The third and last cascade measures 20 m (66 ft) in height, and has the greatest water volume of any waterfall in Guadeloupe.

The safety hazard thus created led park authorities to limit access to the cascade to no closer than a bridge just downstream.
