Description:
Noted for not just its fauna and flora but cultural and historical sights too, Curacao’s largest national park is named after the mighty mount that rises 1,239 feet above the glittering coast and Caribbean. Established in 1978, it encompasses ancient Arawak Indian cave paintings, the ruins of historic old plantations and the Savanet Museum which explains more about the region’s past. While hiking up to the top of its rugged peak, you can sometimes spot white-tailed deer, hawks and extremely rare orchids like the strong scented lady of the night. Once you reach its exposed summit, you can bask in phenomenal views over the park and the shimmering sea alongside it.
