Join us to witness a spectacular sunrise in the mountains as we hike the Blue Mountain Peak in Jamaica! On this unique trek, we’ll ascend a steep craggy path in the pitch black of the night, walk past lush tree ferns and colorful wildflowers and enjoy amazing vistas of the morning sky!
Located near Kingston, the Blue Mountain Peak (2,256m) is the highest peak of the Blue Mountain range. This mountain range is popular among explorers for trekking and camping activities. And did you know it houses one of the most exotic coffees in the world, the Blue Mountain Coffee?
We’ll begin this trek at 2 AM when it is still dark. Using our flashlights, we’ll venture on a rugged path. It is a 7-mile hike to the top and takes about 4 hours.
We’ll hear intriguing sounds of nocturnal animals as we tread. Heading on a steep narrow path called Jacob’s Ladder, we’ll witness a spectacular view of the star-studded sky. We’ll stride through a dense forest to reach the peak just in time for the sunrise.
And once you reach the top, you’ll be exhilarated! The sun emerges from behind the soaring peaks, the sky turns yellowish-red, providing a stunning view! On the north lies Buff Bay and Port Antonio’s Navy Island and on the south falls Kingston and St Thomas’ coast. You’ll also have a hazy view of Cuba from here!
Finally, after enjoying these panoramic vistas, we’ll set on our descent. You’ll experience the rich biodiversity of the area in daylight now. We’ll walk past a low green canopy and hear pleasing bird sounds to reach the base and complete this incredible trek.
So, strap your boots to head on a memorable sunrise trek to the Blue Mountain Peak in Jamaica! Request to book now!

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
