Galeras del Cinaruco

The Galeras del Cinaruco extend across 95 square kilometers, rising up to 250 meters above the savannas with dense vegetation and gallery forests.

The Cinaruco Capanaparo National Park, which houses these rock formations, received its protected status through Decree No. 2,018 in February 1988.

The area contains 57 plant species and serves as a habitat for numerous Venezuelan wildlife, including 26 percent of all mammals native to the country.

The rock formations remain accessible through road and river routes, though flooding occurs frequently during the rainy season from April to November.

The geological structure consists of crystalline and sedimentary rocks from the Guiana Shield, covered by clay deposits from the Andes and sandy sediments.
