Carrasco National Park, Protected natural area in Cochabamba, Bolivia.

The national park extends over 622,600 hectares from the Andes foothills to the Amazon basin, containing rivers, waterfalls, and limestone formations.

The area was designated as Carrasco-Ichilo National Park in 1988 and underwent expansion in 1991 to address environmental concerns from road development.

The territory connects with ancient Inca settlements and currently involves local communities in tourism initiatives while maintaining conservation practices.

Visitors can access the park through Villa Tunari, where they find accommodation, restaurants, and guide services for activities like hiking and kayaking.

The park contains three natural caves within the Cavernas del Repechón Wildlife Sanctuary, providing habitat for nocturnal birds and numerous bat species.
