The engines kick and dirt rises as you leave Antigua’s stone streets behind; the RN14 ribbon of road pushes you into coffee fields and terraced slopes, the vehicles clattering like a convoy of explorers. After a short off-road run you park and step into a cool forest where a 30-minute trail threads downhill — birds call, leaves brush your shoulders, and the waterfall ahead dares you forward.
