Category: Trelawny
Trelawny is a parish located in northwestern Jamaica which is well known for producing several Olympic sprinters, including Usain Bolt. The southern section of Trelawny is part of the Cockpit Country, and is uninhabitable. It is therefore a natural reserve for flora and fauna; most of Jamaica’s 27 endemic bird species can be found there, along with yellow snakes, and the giant swallowtail butterfly, the largest butterfly in the western hemisphere. Trelawny’s top activities include bamboo rafting on the Martha Brae, touring the Hampden rum estate and exploring the parish’s ruins, caves and sinkholes.
