Cutervo Province, Administrative province in Cajamarca, Peru.
Cutervo Province is an administrative division in Cajamarca that spreads across fifteen districts, with the city of Cutervo as its main hub. The land ranges from valley areas to mountain regions, creating a varied landscape throughout its territory.
The province formed from indigenous territories and was reorganized when Peru created its modern administrative system. This reshaping happened as the nation developed its regional structure.
Local communities in the districts maintain traditional farming methods, with regular markets where farmers from different elevations gather to sell their crops and share knowledge.
Visiting the districts means adjusting to different elevations depending on which areas you explore. A reliable vehicle and local guidance help when moving through all the regions.
The province contains Cutervo National Park, which has unusual karst landscapes and cave systems that attract researchers and conservationists. These features make the area a significant spot for wildlife and plant diversity in the central highlands.
