#2 - Bordeaux Mountain Trail
Virgin Islands National ParkLength: 2.0 mi • Est. 1 h 40 m
The trail is awesome! It cuts through the side of Bordeaux Mountain and is supported by rocks the whole way. There are three picturesque spots of Great Lameshur Bay and beyond. Much of the trail is in the woods but it is not shady during mid day.
The hike back up the mountain is very strenuous. It goes from sea level to 1200 feet in about one mile. At the top of the mountain you are basically at a road, but this hike is great for exercise and the trail down is super easy and fun. Once you reach the bottom, you can make a right and continue on to Little Lameshur Bay where there is great snorkeling. You can also continue the trail out to Yawzi Point, an easy extension of the trail with great views of both Lameshur Bays. It is well marked. Or bring your snorkel gear and snorkel at Little Lameshur, the beach is secluded and quiet. There’s a changing station. The ruins at the beach are picturesque too.
