Departure from Saint-Claude (Guadeloupe) (Guadeloupe)
A demanding hike on the slopes of La Soufrière, combining volcanoes, spectacular landscapes and historical discovery with the DC-3 wreck. The section leading to the wreck is the most complicated, very muddy and technical, requiring balance and endurance, while the rest of the route is more accessible. This hike is not suitable for non-athletes or those unaccustomed to challenging terrain, but it offers incredible views and unique memories for those who dare to venture there.
