Mount Liamuiga

Mount Liamuiga is a 1,156-metre (3,792 ft) stratovolcano which forms the north-western part of the island of Saint Kitts.

The peak is the highest point on the island of Saint Kitts, in the federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis, and in the entire British Leeward Islands, as well as one of the tallest peaks in the eastern Caribbean archipelago.

The mountainsides are covered in farmland and small villages up to a height of 460 metres (1,500 ft), after which lush tropical rainforests drape the slopes until cloud forest takes over at 900 m (3,000 ft).

Many tours and guided hikes are organized to the peak's summit and surrounding rainforests, usually starting from Belmont Estate in the village of St. Paul's.

From the summit, the views are outstanding, including the entire island and the beautiful Caribbean Sea, as well as the neighbouring islands of Saba, Sint Eustatius, Saint Barthélemy, Saint Martin, Antigua, and Nevis.
