Description

The Pitons, St. Lucia's twin towering peaks and prime topographic feature, soar out of the sea to great heights. The Gros Piton (large piton) to the south is 798 meters high and the Petit Piton (small piton) is 750 meters. Formed by volcanic activity about 200,000 to 300,000 years ago, both the Pitons are considered difficult climbs.
