Parc national de Morne Trois Pitons
Dominique
Located in Dominica, this national park encompasses a significant portion of the island's interior mountainous terrain. The site is characterized by three prominent volcanic peaks—Morne Trois Pitons, Morne Micotrin, and Morne Watt—which dominate the landscape and give the park its distinctive physiography. The park protects diverse ecosystems including tropical forests, alpine vegetation, and geothermal features such as the Boiling Lake, one of the world's largest hot springs. Its inscription reflects the outstanding universal value of its geological formations, biodiversity, and the presence of endemic species found nowhere else. The site's volcanic geology, combined with its rainforest coverage and active geothermal phenomena, creates a landscape of scientific and natural significance. The park represents an important refuge for Caribbean wildlife and plays a crucial role in regional ecological conservation.
