The ride begins before you clip in: a gondola eases away from the base station and the island drops away—green canopy expands, the coast slices into view, and a warm breeze teases the straps of your harness. At Rainforest Adventures’ Sky Rides, the aerial tram delivers a panoramic introduction to La Sorcière Mountain and the Castries Waterworks Reserve, then switches tempo to a guided walk beneath buttress roots and through mature tropical hardwoods.
