Pico Espejo, Mountain summit in Sierra Nevada, Venezuela.

Pico Espejo reaches an elevation of 4,765 meters above sea level, standing as part of the Venezuelan Andes mountain range near Pico Bolívar.

The construction of the Mérida cable car system to Pico Espejo required international expertise, with French, Swiss, and German engineers completing the project in 1960.

The summit serves as a gathering point for mountain enthusiasts and researchers who study the regional flora, fauna, and geological formations.

Visitors access the summit through five consecutive stations of the Mérida cable car system, which operates daily subject to weather conditions.

The temperature difference between the base station and summit reaches 20 degrees Celsius, requiring visitors to prepare for rapid climate changes.
