BROWNSBERG wake up to the sound of the awakening jungle
It is an amazing experience to wake up to the sound of the waterfall and the awakening jungle. On the Brownsberg you can see different types of animals such as; monkeys, reptiles, amphibians, spiders, caimans, turtles and so on! This nature reserve is situated in the Brokopondo district, about 1,5 hour drive from Paramaribo. The climb up by car is about an extra hour. The top is 515 meters high and we drive all the way to the bauxite plateau. The property is located on the top of the mountain as there are the starting points of several tracks, most of which end at waterfalls. We can visit several waterfalls and also have the option to spend the night there! In this trip everything is taken care of, transportation, accommodation, food & drinks and a guide.
This tour will be guided by a professional Unlock Nature wildlife guide.
WILDLIFE YOU CAN ENCOUNTER ON BROWNSBERG
Dipsas Copei
The Dipsas Copei is a rare and harmless-looking snail eater that looks like any other snail eater until you see its brightly orange head.
Phyllomedusa Tomoptema
It is a large green frog with scattered white spots, orange groin and inner surfaces of the limbs with purple stripes, and a pale orange belly. It has a vertical pupil, smooth dorsal skin, expanded discs in the fingers and an absent membrane between the toes.
Howler monkeys
They are one of the biggest monkeys in the forest of Suriname. They live in small groups up to 8 animals and are mostly located due to their specific sound; howling. The howling can be heard up to a distance of 5 kilometres and can be pretty intense. It is said that they are the loudest animals on land. The male of the group is mostly the one who initiates and stops the howling.
Howler monkeys feed mostly on (young) leaves and fruits. That is why they spent most of their time in the tree tops and are pretty difficult to find. Did you know they can eat unripe fruits and even fruits that would be toxic for humans?! They do not digest the fruit seeds, and are therefore are a great help in dispersing the seeds. This shows again that every animal has a crucial role in the ecosystem!
