This 86-acre area was the first National Park in the BVI. Through a generous donation from Laurance Rockefeller, the land at Sage Mountain was purchased from farmers and given to the BVI Government as a national park. The farmland was reforested with white cedar, West Indian and Honduran mahogany trees and, which have thrived along with other naturally regenerated secondary vegetation. Sage Mountain is the highest point in the British and US Virgin Islands at 1,716 feet, with panoramic views of all the islands. Large boulders and old-growth forest on the north side are in stark contrast to the old pastures and remnant dry forest on the south. There are twelve trails through the forest with loops creating a circular route. Brochures are available at the park entrance.
