Intro
Boeri Lake is a must-do if you’re already at Freshwater Lake and want to extend your visit with a loop-style hike. The trail is simple and rewarding, with viewpoints over Freshwater Lake, the east coast, and Grand Fond Valley. The atmosphere shifts as you go, until you reach a misty crater lake that feels very “deep Dominica”.
