Heidoti is a village in Boven Saramacca municipality (resort) in Sipaliwini District in Suriname. Heidoti is home to Maroons of the Kwinti tribe. [1]
Heidoti had been built as a camp by the Geological and Mining Services, [2] and was later settled by Nicodemus, who moved his family into the hamlet. In 1915, Nicodemus was appointed village chief. [1] Since 2009, Heidoti is home to the Heidoti Tropical Park. [3]
Heidoti can be reached by boat from Nieuw Jacobkondre, which has road access to the rest of the country, [4] or from the Cabana Airstrip. [5] In November 2019, IAMGOLD finished a road to the Saramacca Development Project in Cabana giving Heidoti direct access to the rest of the country. [6] [7]
