Macarao National Park, National park in Capital District and Miranda State, Venezuela
Located in northern Venezuela, Macarao National Park encompasses 15,000 hectares of mountainous terrain within the Cordillera de la Costa mountain range.
The Venezuelan government established Macarao National Park on December 5, 1973, to safeguard water resources essential for supplying Caracas with drinking water.
The park maintains strong connections with local communities who incorporate traditional practices while maintaining sustainable resource management within its boundaries.
Visitors can access hiking trails, conduct scientific research, and participate in educational programs while exploring the diverse ecosystems of the park.
The park contains the watersheds of three rivers - Macarao, San Pedro, and Jarillo - making it a critical source of water for Venezuela's capital region.
