Helpfulness
No one's quite sure about these weird rock formations perched high on a hill. It is a long climb up the hill to reach them, but many say the hike is well worth the trip. Theories of their origins include a belief that the place was arranged to worship the Sun-God and the Moon-Goddess. However, other geologists say that the rocks simply arrived there because of a volcanic eruption. Either way, it is a sight interesting to see and another example of Antigua's fascinating, natural beauty.
Starting at the brick factory, climb this one-hour, not-so-easy trek to Green Castle Hill to see the most spectacular three-way view of Antigua. Rock formations rise up to 180 meters and are thought to be prehistoric megaliths. (Greencastle Hill, no town)
