Tamá National Natural Park, Protected natural area in Norte de Santander, Colombia

The park encompasses 480 square kilometers of diverse ecosystems, including tropical rainforest, sub-Andean forest, Andean forest, and high-altitude grasslands called páramos.

The Colombian government established Tamá National Natural Park on May 2, 1977, to preserve the ecological corridor between Colombia and Venezuela.

The name Tamá originates from an extinct indigenous language that was spoken by native communities who inhabited this mountainous region.

Entry fees differ by nationality: Colombian residents pay 15,000 pesos, while international visitors are charged 36,000 pesos to access the park grounds.

The park features an 820-meter waterfall and serves as a habitat for spectacled bears, mountain lions, and the northern helmeted curassow.
