Guaramacal National Park, National park in Portuguesa and Trujillo, Venezuela
Guaramacal National Park is a protected area in the mountains of Portuguesa that spans across steep terrain with forest coverage and multiple ridge systems. The landscape includes different zones based on elevation, each supporting distinct ecosystems and wildlife communities.
The park was established to protect the mountainous landscapes and ecosystems of the region. Scientific research in the area has helped document the plant and animal diversity found across different elevations.
Local communities near the park maintain traditional agricultural practices while utilizing natural resources within the designated conservation boundaries.
The best time to visit is outside the rainy season when trails are more accessible and visibility is clearer. Visitors should bring sturdy shoes and layers of clothing since it gets cooler at higher elevations.
The park contains the Ramal de Guaramacal, the northernmost section of the Cordillera de Merida mountain range in Venezuela.
