See Mount Saint Benedict, Trinidad

Add to My List Check Off

Mount Saint Benedictis a Catholic monastery located high in the Northern Range, near the village of Arima on Trinidad. Visitors are warmly welcomed. There is a lovely guest house, Pax Guest House , where a scrumptious tea is served on Sunday afternoons to all visitors. (Meals are also regularly available to overnight guests.) The breads and sweets are baked by the Benetictine monks, so they're fresh and delicious. The cost is minimal for the tea service. The entire complex is peaceful and because it is situated so high on the mountain, it is wonderfully cool. (One might even require a sweater in the evenings.) For the physically fit, there are Stations of the Cross that begin at the bottom of the mountain and end at the church. The Stations are along a rather steep road, requiring exercise for the body and soul. Source: wikitravel
