world.
Given its amplitude, it comprises
various natural
habitats the pluviale forest
sempreverde, the mixed pluviale forest,
the mixed deciduous forest, the forest
to collinare always green. This great
biological diversity is given also from
the presence of two rivers and some
mountains, like the

calls Haeo Suwat

fly outside in great flocks.
Naturally also the flora is much varied
one. Between the species more diffuse,
beyond to the orchidee, there are
rampicant, ferns, palms but also
deciduous trees (that is with leaves
that fall), to the greater altitudes.
The park is covered gives approximately
50 kilometers of paths. Therefore it is
possible to visit it in great part. To

moment is perhaps the morning soon. The
fog that wraps the park renders the all
much evocative one then. |
