Avid nature lovers will want to set apart at least half a day to explore this park, a protected area that is home to a rich variety of local flora and fauna. The park is teeming with local birds and plants, including many species you will not easily see anywhere else on the island. There are eight hiking trails, allowing the visitor the choice between an easy stroll, or for instance, a challenging hike to the top of Mt. Christoffel (recommended for early morning, before the sun packs its punch). Scenic car routes take you through underbrush, around hills and across sea swept bluffs. The park also organizes special activities, including deer watching, animal presentations, cave excursions, a guided park tour and occasional full moon walk. There are also mountain biking facilities. ‘Landhuis’ Savonet, on the parks grounds, was one of the first plantation houses to be built on the island.
