Can you believe this used to be a river bed? it is now possible to walk three miles through the valley in the shadows of magnificent ferns and hardwood trees. Go a day time and try to guess the time of day.

This is a free trip! Tranquil road through tunnels formed by hundreds of towering fern species, with roadside vendors. It is three (3) miles long and part of the public road network.

Fern Gully is a winding scenic stretch of road which starts in Ocho Rios and runs for three miles, ending up in the community of Colgate. The area gets its name from the wide variety of ferns which grow in the area, towering high above the road forming a shady tunnel of lush greenery. The varieties of plant life may be lost on many visitors but keen botanists will enjoy seeing approximately 300 varieties of fern in addition to other species such as Blue Mahoe and Banana trees. The roadway through Fern Gully was established in 1907 when an earthquake destroyed one of the eight rivers in the Ocho Rios area.
