What To Expect

Brownsberg nature reserve is about four hours south of Paramaribo and on the way, you'll see the old bauxite mining company plus its distinct local towns. Your senses will come alive even more when you arrive at the nature reserve as you're surrounded by hundreds of different species of tropical birds and medicinal plants that are traditionally used for injuries or illnesses. If you're lucky you may even see a wild deer or Pakira (forest pig)! This and more all in one day with lunch included.After an early pick up from Paramaribo, you'll travel to Paranam and learn about the Afobakaweg, not only from your guide but by seeing its old bauxite mining company and small villages from the window as you're driven past. When you arrive at the mountain of the Mazaroni plateau at 500 meters altitude, marvel at the green surroundings with its glistening reservoir dotted with tree trunks whilst hearing why it was created.Feel the tranquility and feel-good exercise as you hike through the rainforest over its hills to one of the 4 waterfalls. The climb and descent, although requires a good amount of stamina, will increase your knowledge about the different flora and fauna that you will encounter and you'll hopefully spot some of the animals. After, you'll deserve the lunch included at the restaurant!
