Peace Hill is aptly named. From the hilltop at the end of the headland separating Hawksnest and Dennis Bays, you can enjoy an absolutely spectacular view of the north coast of St John and beyond.
Years ago, a windmill was powered by the constant trade winds that passed unimpeded over the hill. The semi-restored ruin now provides a dramatic backdrop to the unique tranquility of the hilltop.
The trail to Peace Hill begins at the parking area located about a half mile east of Hawksnest Beach and leads to the top of Peace Hill. It’s a short easy walk, only about a tenth of a mile on a well-maintained track with a moderate grade.
Denis Bay Spur Trail:About 20 yards up the Peace Hill Trail, a 0.2 mile spur trail on the right leads to the western end of Denis Bay near Perkins Cay. This is not an official Park trail and although not regularly maintained, it is generally in good condition.
