LOCATION

It is geographically located in the foothills of the western plain of the Pastos knot, in the basin of the Ñambí River, a tributary of the Telembí River, and thanks to the purchase of new properties, the Yaguachi River is also being protected.

It is strategically located as it is part of a large binational corridor together with other protected areas and indigenous reservations; thus allowing the conservation of the habitat of approximately 45 species of endemic birds such as the Pangan (Cephalopterus penduliger). It is also listed by the Alliance for Zero Extinction as an AZE site.
