Spanning over 5,000 square kilometers, the park encompasses a range of ecosystems from tropical rainforests to high-altitude grasslands. It is home to two active volcanoes, Tungurahua and Sangay, the latter of which is one of the most active volcanoes in the world. The park also provides sanctuary to numerous endangered species, including the Andean condor, the spectacled bear, and the mountain tapir.
