Hollywell National Park

Located in the hills of St. Andrew lies Hollywell National Forest Park about four thousand (4000) ft. above sea level. Because of the very cool temperature in this area, Hollywell National Park has a variety of ferns, flowers, and trees which are rarely seen in other parts of the island. The forest Park is a sanctuary for several species of birds. These include the Petchary, Woodpeckers, the Hopping Dick and the Glasseye. Hollywell is the place for nature lovers to visit.
