Local communities around the park receive essential water supplies, with 60 percent of the water production supporting the surrounding towns and hydroelectric systems.

Visitors can stay at Los Pinos Center, which provides concrete cabins with bedding, washable toilets, and cold water showers for overnight accommodation.

The park contains multiple forest types and serves as habitat for more than 170 bird species across its varied elevation zones.
