South Branch of Ravine Deux D'leau ( Eng .: "South branch of the brook of the two waters") is a river in the east of Dominica in the Parish Saint David .

geography

The South Branch of Ravine Deux D'leau is probably the river with the highest springs in Dominica. The source streams arise in the Morne Trois Pitons National Park just below the summit of Morne Trois Pitons , on its east side and run steeply to the northeast. They arise at approx. 1300  m above sea level , unite at 1000  m and only in the area of Terre Ferme does the gradient become a little smaller and the river runs more towards the east. It takes up the Terre Ferme River from the right and southwest and flows into the Brown's River after a strongly meandering course between Newfoundland and Tantie . The river is approximately 5.34 km long.
