About this tour
This five- to six-hour outing follows Tobago’s north coast toward Main Ridge Forest Reserve. Selected pauses around Englishman’s Bay and Bloody Bay introduce the coastal setting before the route reaches the protected rainforest.
Inside Main Ridge, the field session continues on the Gilpin Trail, with attention to native birds and the wider natural history of the forest. The official program is designed for a minimum of two participants; the precise balance between roadside stops and walking follows conditions on the day.
