After driving from the pier to the stables, you will set out with your trained tour guide on a scenic countryside trail ride through Drax Hall Estate along a path that takes you to the sea. Drax Hall was first established as a sugar producing entity; it remained a sugar estate through the 1880s before switching over to bananas and cattle and finally copra after 1905. Like many estates in coastal St. Ann, Drax Hall produced pimento as a secondary crop.

On arrival at the section of deserted beach, strip down to your bathing suits, as your horse is unsaddled for your tremendous bare back horse ride experience in the Caribbean Sea, an experience not to me missed. Time in the water is approximately 10 - 15 minutes.

You will then drive to Dunns River Falls. The falls drop in a cascade (or steps) from a height of 600 feet down to sea level. They are constantly fed by beautiful crystal clear water running down from the nearby mountains and rain forest. It takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes to make the entire climb. There are places along the way where you are able to slide down into pools of water, take a swim and climb again. There are local "guides" at the falls who will lead you up. These guides are separate from your tour and will expect a gratuity when you reach the top.

Please Note: Although there are changing facilities at the falls, we suggest wearing your swimming suit under comfortable beach clothing. Water shoes can be rented at the falls if you do not have sneakers or your own water shoes. Flip flops are not recommended. Climbing the falls is not recommended to guests with back or hip/knee concerns.
