Abra de Río Frío Natural Monument, Natural monument in San Cristóbal, Venezuela
Located between the Llanos region and Táchira depression, this protected area covers 1,282 hectares of dense tropical and premontane humid forests.
The Venezuelan government designated Abra de Río Frío as a natural monument on February 18, 1993, to protect its geological and orographic structures.
The convergence point of the Frío, Quinimarí, and Uribante rivers creates a natural passage through the Andean mountain system used by local communities.
Visitors need authorization from Inparques rangers to access the forest areas, where activities like paragliding, mountain biking, and scientific research take place.
The La Virgen waterfall drops more than 50 meters and carries the local nickname La Pierde Gente due to regional folklore.
