Caribbean highlands with Nearctic ecosystems and glacial heritage

Valle Nuevo National Park

Valle Nuevo National Park is a protected area in the central highlands of the Dominican Republic, representing one of the Caribbean's most distinctive ecological environments. Established as a national park in 1996, the park occupies a high-altitude plateau at elevations exceeding 2,200 meters within the Cordillera Central mountain range, making it the southeastern terminus of this major Caribbean mountain system. The park's remarkable elevation creates conditions atypical for the Caribbean, supporting vegetation and wildlife more commonly associated with North American ecosystems, earning it classification within the Nearctic ecozone. With an area of 910 square kilometers, Valle Nuevo encompasses dramatic mountain peaks, extensive pine forests, cloud forest habitats, and over 500 freshwater sources that feed major river systems. The geological legacy of glacial activity during the Last Glacial Maximum remains visible in the park's highest terrain, including cirques, moraines, and glacial channels around Alto de la Bandera, the fourth-highest peak on Hispaniola.
