Chicamocha National Park, National park in Santander, Colombia

Chicamocha National Park sits on a high plateau above a deep canyon in Santander and includes several viewpoints, walking trails, and a long cable car line. The landscape shifts between dry slopes with low vegetation and forested sections, while the river runs far below through the narrow valley.

Chicamocha National Park opened on 5 December 1992 as an ecotourism and cultural initiative around the Chicamocha Canyon. Its Monumento a la Santandereanidad, by artist Luis Guillermo Vallejo, recalls the Comunero Rebellion; its main piece is shaped like a tobacco leaf, the symbol of that uprising. The cable car crossing the canyon opened in January 2009.

The park's cultural core is the Monumento a la Santandereanidad, a sculpture by Luis Guillermo Vallejo whose main piece takes the shape of a tobacco leaf, symbol of the Comunero Rebellion. Nearby, the Museo Guane presents the region's Guane heritage, and the Pueblito Santandereano reproduces a traditional town of the department.

The park lies 54 km from Bucaramanga and 39 km from San Gil, in the municipality of Aratoca, on the Bucaramanga–San Gil road. The cable car runs 6.3 km to Mesa de los Santos, with a middle station beside the river and a final one at Vereda el Tabacal. A chiva service moves visitors between stations inside the park.

The cable car crosses a height difference of several hundred meters and offers direct views of the river and steep rock faces during the ride. On clear days, the view extends far into the hinterland, where small villages and terraces become visible.
