The Mt. Rich Petroglyphs are a collection of pre-Columbian rock carvings located along the banks of the Great River in St. Patrick Parish. These intricate designs, including spirals and human-like figures, were carved by the Taíno or Kalinago peoples centuries ago. The site is considered one of the most important archaeological treasures in Grenada, offering a tangible link to the island's indigenous history. Visitors can view the carvings on large boulders in a serene riverside setting, often accompanied by the sound of flowing water.
