In the Footsteps of the Mountain

The reserve's 65 hectares serve as a safe passage for wildlife. Thanks to our non-invasive monitoring camera traps, we have documented the majestic presence of pumas (mountain lions) and other native mammals that find refuge and nourishment in our forest. Every step you take here directly supports the protection of their home.
