Fodor's Expert Review La Soufrière

This towering volcano, which erupted in April 2021, is 4,048 feet high and so huge in area that its surrounding mountainside covers virtually the entire northern third of the island. The eastern trail to the rim of the crater, a two-hour ascent from Rabacca Dry River, was a fairly easy trail until the volcano's recent eruption—which spewed thick ash and gases over northern St. Vincent. The trail has reopened, but is now far more challenging as most of it was swept away during the eruption.
