About

Chingaza National Natural Park, located in the Eastern Ranges of the Colombian Andes, is a stunning expanse of protected natural beauty. Covering approximately 766 square kilometers, the park is renowned for its diverse ecosystems, including high Andean forests and páramo, a unique high-altitude tundra. Home to a rich variety of flora and fauna, Chingaza supports species such as the spectacled bear, Andean condor, and the frailejón plant, which is crucial for water regulation. The park is also vital for Bogotá's water supply, as its numerous lakes and wetlands feed into the Chingaza Dam.
