1. HIKE TO THE QUILL NATIONAL PARK:
Welcome to the Quill / Boven National Park. The Park was pronounced the first official national park of the Netherlands Antilles in 1998,
making it a protected nature reserve. The park was created to protect unique biodiversity and ensure sustainable use by all stakeholders.
This 3.4km2 park consists of the dormant volcano ‘The Quill’ and ‘White Wall’, the limestone formation located on the south side of the
volcano. The park boundaries include the Quill slopes above 250m, the interior of the crater and White Wall down to sea level. The Quill
soars dramatically to a height of 2000 feet / 600 metres. The Dutch settlers first called it "Kuil" meaning pit or hole but the English settlers
renamed it - "Quill." It is a lush rainforest, an intriguing hiking expedition.
