O Le Pupu-Pu’e National Park
The name of this 29-sq-km national park means ‘from the coast to the mountaintop’. The 700m Ma Tree Walk ends at a gigantic rainforest tree with huge buttress roots. At the park’s western boundary, a sandy 3km unsealed access road leads to the magnificently rugged O Le Pupu Lava Coast, where a rocky coastal trail leads along lava cliffs, the bases of which are constantly harassed by enormous waves.
The site extends from the highest points of Upolu Island down to the rugged Le Pūpū lava cliffs on the island’s south coast. The Park includes large tracts of forest dominated by native plants, and is considered as the island’s best-preserved remaining tropical forest. It includes parts of the Togitogiga water catchment, and boasts waterfalls that are a prime tourist attraction.
