Overview

Enjoy a morning or afternoon in this natural refuge with fragments of Andean forest, where cucharos, tachuelos, caracolis, arrayanes, orchids, bromeliads, and other regional plants attract countless birds, including chachalacas, tanagers of various colors, flycatchers, hummingbirds, and many more.

This reserve has been working on the recovery of areas that were used for livestock and intensive agriculture, with excellent results that have attracted people to learn about it and apply its methods in other places.
