Brownsberg Nature Park
The Brownsberg Nature Park is located about 80 kilometers from Paramaribo. It was founded in 1969 and is 500 meters above sea level. It's largely neotropical rainforest, and hundreds of rare and unusual plant and animal species call it home. You'll have a great time hiking around this beautiful part of the world.
The trip up Browns-Mountain will be difficult to say the least if you don't have a vehicle with at least four-wheel drive. The roads are not paved and are riddled with potholes and massive cracks. The roads are also frequently muddy, making it easier for smaller cars to become stranded.
The journey through Brownsberg Nature Park is worthwhile, though, because the top campground provides breathtaking views of the surrounding jungle and the distant Brokopondo Reservoir.
This popular and enjoyable day excursion from Paramaribo is known for its abundance of monkeys and birds, as well as its spectacular setting overlooking Brokopondo Reservoir.
