Dominica Morne Diablotin National Park |
subtitle | |||
|
This is Dominica's newest national park. The land is so rugged that it was favored by runaways slaves called Maroons. Six Maroon camps?Pharcel, Clemence, Cicero , Quashie, Juba and Robin, all named after their leaders?were located within the park. However, the exact locations of the camps still are unknown. The first recorded ascent of 4,747-foot Morne Diablotin was made by Scots physician Dr. John Imray in 1867. There is a section of the mountain known today as Imray's view. Two Princes, George Albert and George, climbed the peak in 1880. Hikes of Morne Diablotin National Park Morne
