Reach the Summit of Blue Mountain Peak

A spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Site, Blue and John Crow Mountains National Park is a great place to experience Jamaica’s natural beauty. Located an hour north of Kingston, the park boasts a collection of waterfalls, rainforests, mountains and coffee plantations, while it’s also home to more than 200 species of birds and the world’s second-largest butterfly. Hike to the summit of Blue Mountain Peak, Jamaica’s highest peak at 7,402-feet-high, which offers impressive views of Cuba on a clear day. From here, join a downhill bicycle tour and stop by little-known waterfalls tucked into the mountains or stop by the Craighton House for a cup of famous Blue Mountain coffee. Catch sunset views with an overnight stay at Strawberry Hill, which is home to luxurious cottages perched above the park.
