Crown Mountain, Mountain summit in Saint Thomas, United States Virgin Islands
Crown Mountain rises to an elevation of 474 meters above sea level, making it the highest point in the United States Virgin Islands territory.
The mountain stands as a testament to the geological formation of the Caribbean islands, shaped by volcanic activity millions of years ago.
Local residents of Saint Thomas maintain traditional hiking routes to the summit, passing through areas rich with native Caribbean plant species.
Hikers should start their ascent early in the morning to avoid the strong Caribbean sun and bring sufficient water for the entire journey.
The summit provides direct views of 28 neighboring Caribbean islands across three different territorial waters on clear weather days.
