Peperpot Tour – Historical Plantation & Nature Park (Suriname)

$131.63

Description

Plantation Peperpot is one of the oldest plantations in Suriname. As early as the end of the 17th century, settlers started growing tobacco here. Later, coffee and cocoa were added. The coffee used to be transported to the drying places by boat via the long canals – which still run through the plantation forest today.

Vegetable gardens can now be found on the site between the old brick locks, built by the current residents. The 3.2 kilometers of hiking trails take you past several historic buildings that remind you of Peperpot’s colonial past. This combination of nature, history and tranquility makes it a unique place to visit.

From Frederiksdorp, you can book a tour to both Plantation Peperpot and the Peperpot Nature Park, where you will find a mix of cultural heritage and beautiful tropical forest.
