O Le Pupu-Puʿe National Park ("The Cliffs-Mountain") is the oldest national park in Samoa. Established in 1978, the park covers 5019 hectares of the southern-central portion of the island of Upolu on the border of the Atua and Tuamasaga districts. The park extends from Mount Fito, the highest mountain on Uplou, to the coast, and includes uplands, valleys, marshes, the O Le Pupu lava field, and coastal cliffs. In 2016 it was designated as a wetland of international importance under the Ramsar Convention.
