ECO ADVENTURES/BIKING-HIKING
Middle Caicos is the destination for hiking and bicycling in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Backwoods tracks and newly paved roads combine with a scenic section of the historic Crossing Place Trail, to provide a customizable mountain bike experience on this sparsely populated paradise.
The Crossing Place Trail links the three villages of Middle Caicos and once provided passage for the slave populations as they made their way to the 'Crossing Place', which was a shallow water sandbar leading to North Caicos. Islanders would wait for low tide and wade between these sister islands.
Today the Crossing Place Trail is home to the country's finest hiking. The portion of the Crossing Place Trail that runs from Danny's Café in Conch Bar to Mudjin Harbor features the Indian Cave formation, and takes approximately sixty minutes.
The hike from Mudjin Harbor to the Blowing Hole features some of the most incredible coastal limestone scenery in the world. Don't mind the flotsam on this approximately two-hour hike.
Hiking is also available at the Conch Bar Caves. Over 3 miles of above ground cave are ready to be explored. The Haulover Plantation ruins outside of Lorimers provide incredible views of the uninhabited paradise of East Caicos, as part of a forty-five minute inland hike.
Biking is available on the Middle Caicos Bike Adventure, and hiking can be included as part of a full day private charter on North and Middle Caicos.
