The Los Haitises National Park (the name of which means “high ground” or “mountain” in the language of the ancient Tainos) is one of the Dominican Republic’s most important protected natural landscapes. It covers an area of around 1,600 km2, which forms part of a vast karst system created 50 million years ago, and comprises a rich mosaic of marine and terrestrial ecosystems: estuaries, inlets, bays, keys and mogotes [hummocks] — the curious, cone-shaped rock formations that are a feature of the area’s landscape — as well as sinkholes, mangroves, etc. In other words, this is a huge park teeming with natural attractions where you can enjoy unique adventures.
