Tompire River Basin Walk
Our journey begins and ends at the newly built Agro-Tourism Center in the charming village of Cumana situated on the picturesque North-East coast of Trinidad. The Agro-Tourism Center is a place of true hospitality. It is a place where the visitor will feel part of the village life.
Our comfortable walk carries us first through agricultural land planted with different tropical fruit trees as well as abandoned cocoa estates and tropical forest until we reach the meeting point of the Narang and Tompire rivers. A very beautiful spot.
From here we walk down the majestic Tompire river with its crystal clear, blue-green pools teeming with aquatic life. Its banks are lushly forested and are the home to different wildlife.
This refreshing river walk will emerge you into a kaleidoscope of colours, sounds and smells and reward you with serenity and peace.
We will have a swim at one of the numerous pools before returning back through the forest.
