Serranía de los Churumbelos, Protected area in southwestern Colombia

The national park extends across 97,239 hectares, spanning four departments: Cauca, Putumayo, Huila, and Caquetá, with elevations from 400 to 3,000 meters.

The Serranía de los Churumbelos National Natural Park became Colombia's 53rd protected area in 2007, with 95 percent of its territory located in Cauca Department.

The Inga indigenous people have inhabited the Amazonian foothills for over 1,000 years, maintaining their Quechua language and traditional knowledge of medicinal plants.

The park registers 462 bird species, representing 25 percent of Colombia's total bird population, earning its designation as Important Bird Area No. 66.
