Hiking to the top of Mount Christoffel

Looking for adventure in Curaçao? Hike to the top of Mount Christoffel in Christoffel Park, the island's largest national park. At just 375 metres, it may sound like a breeze but don't underestimate this climb. Especially under Curaçao's 30-degree tropical sun. After checking in at the visitor centre and paying the entrance fee, the adventurous drive through the park to the start of the trail starts. This is a fun experience on its own: a one-way road winding through lush greenery with occasional steep climbs. There's a small parking lot at the trailhead where you can fill up your water bottle (you'll need it!). 🥾 The trail starts flat and easy but soon enough it gets steeper and steeper. The trail is well indicated with yellow arrows and dots guiding the way. The final stretch is less hiking and more climbing. In 60 to 90 minutes, you'll be standing atop Mount Christoffel and be rewarded with panoramic views of the entire island. 🌿 Along the way, keep an eye out for Curaçao's amazing wildlife: parakeets, lizards, iguanas, and even wild orchids.
