Tell me about Fern Gully..please

[3redheads]

We're doing an Orville Taylor custom tour and don't want to do the falls. We're doing tubing and want to do something else.

 

I read about Fern Gullly, but cannot find much info on it, even on google :confused:

 

Do you recommend Fern Gully or have any other recommendations?

 

Thanks!

Kim

Fern Gully is simply a very pretty road up a hill which is overgrown on both sides with ferns and overhung with trees. It's a pleasant short stop for pictures and to enjoy the scenery.

Fern Gully is an area that is covered in tropical rain forest growth, completely covering the road in many areas. The road is along an old riverbed and is the main road between Ocho Rios and Kingstown. It is very narrow nand winding road with not a lot of places to stop. Where the are places there will be small craft stalls selling at high prices. Basically, it is a matter of how much you enjoy seeing the vegetation because there really is not much else there. IMHO, you could make better use of the time.
