Culture and Nature in the Wider Destination of Tunapuna-Piarco

In the wider destination of Tunapuna-Piarco, Mount St. Benedict offers a historical perspective. It is home to Benedictine monks who settled there in 1912. Three monks came from the Benedictine monastery of San Sebastien in Bahia, Brazil, to the foothills of Trinidad’s Northern Range; they were led by Abbot Dom Mayeul de Caigny. This history connects Trinidad with a Benedictine community from Bahia and gives Mount St. Benedict a clear historical significance. For travelers interested in history and religious culture, this story offers a distinct perspective on the wider destination.

Another focus in the wider destination of Tunapuna-Piarco is the Caura Valley. The valley is accessible via Caura Royal Road, which branches off from Eastern Main Road. The winding access road runs through the valley; along this road, visitors can picnic or swim in the clear waters of the Caura River. Pool Number 1 and Pool Number 2 at the abandoned pump house are described as popular spots for a “river lime.” When planning, you can treat the route and the activities as two separate questions: Caura Royal Road describes the access, while picnicking, swimming, and the “river lime” point to things to do in the valley. Check current local road conditions before setting out; if swimming is part of your plans, also take current water conditions into account.
