Los Queules National Reserve

Los Queules National Reserve spans 1.47 square kilometers of protected land within the Chilean Coastal Range, at elevations between 400 and 500 meters.

The Chilean government established Los Queules National Reserve on March 14, 1995, to protect the remaining patches of Maulino forest from agricultural expansion.

The National Corporation of Forestry manages educational programs at the reserve to teach visitors about conservation and environmental protection in Chilean ecosystems.

Visitors need to bring sufficient water, food, and appropriate hiking gear when exploring the reserve's trails through native forests and coastal landscapes.

The reserve safeguards one of the largest remaining sections of Maulino forest, which contains the endangered Gomortega keule tree species.
