Freshwater Lake is a half-day hike into Morne Trois Pitons National Park from the village of Laudat. It can also be reached by car or taxi and is near a parking area. Visitors can walk a scenic trail that encircles the lake in about 30 minutes. Ferns, mountain palms, and a variety of tropical flora like heliconias, orchids, and bromeliads offer vibrant color to the lush vegetation, making the walk a pleasant one. Situated in a valley, it receives lots of rain, and visitors should expect a misty cloudforest with occasional sunny days. Kayaks can be rented at a nearby visitor center for those not afraid of the mythical lake monster.
