About
The park, located in southeastern Colombia, is mostly in Colombia's Caquetá department, but a small part reaches into Colombia's Guaviare department. The entirety of the park is located south of the Vaupés river, which stretches from Brazil westward through the department of Vaupés and into central Guaviare. Mountain ranges and dense tropical forest span throughout the park.
The reporter Mario Delolmo, who might have never visited the park, obtained his information about mysterious deaths there through a man and woman hiker pair that prefered to remain anonymous. The news report is from the city of San José del Guaviare, located in the northeasternmost corner of the Guaviare department of Colombia and far from the park.
Trivia
- [The Chiribiquete Emerald], a rare species of hummingbird only found in Colombia, is found here.
