Hash Directions

Leave Kingston via Manor Park.  Travel north, up through Stony Hill.  Cross to north side of Island.

At the Robert Schumann roundabout turn LEFT.  In the direction of Port Maria.

Continue along the North Coast highway for 11.5 km until you head uphill via a series of switchbacks.

At the top of the hill TURN RIGHT.  NB. If you drive past the large breakaway on the highway, you have gone too far. Turn round!

Continue along this road for 3km, including driving past Islington High School.
After 3km, you will get to a junction at FriendshipDistrict where you will see ROADSIDE DR on your LEFT.   Turn LEFT.
Continue along this road for 4 km, passing Zion Hill United Church and through two fordings (first one is usually dry).

Just after crossing the second ford, find parking on the left of the road and assemble at Miss Lisa's corner shop.

Hash Extras

A 4.5km hike. From 'Corner Shop' through lush tropical forest down to Salt Bay, descending roughly 165 meters - and then back up the same way. Enjoy awesome views along the trail, and at Salt Bay can take a dip in the sea (only for hashers that can swim !). Bring swimming costumes! Bonus: After the hash, having enjoyed a well-deserved beer, you can hike down to Tacky Falls - 5 to 10 minutes rough hike one-way. Tacky Falls is really a hidden gem: a spectacular waterfall that consist of 2 stages and a plateau in between where this bonus hike takes you to. NB. This bonus is a steep trail, where you'll need to hold on to trees and rocks to keep your balance. Locals will assist you.
