Welcome to La Pedregoza Natural Reserve!

This natural reserve is located 55 KM from the port city of Puerto Carreño in the Colombian departamento of Vichada in South America. It is situated along the banks of the Rio el Bita and not far from the mighty Orinoco river. La Pedregoza Natural Reserve is established for the conservation of native tropical tree species and the preservation of endangered wildlife in the Orinoco basin. Located strategically along a major river, it provides refuge for animals moving between El Tuparro National Park and the natural reserves of Nimajay and Bojonawi. Reserva Natural La Pedregoza is composed at present of two significant riparian forests and two unique morichals, or densely forested drainage areas, with a planned future expansion.

Green Orinoco IguanaConservation Programs
We are dedicated to the conservation of native tree species and their propagation. This requires tropical tree seed collection and the operation of special native tree nurseries.

Conservation of native tree species is important for the preservation of endangered animals, birds and fish. It expands their habitat and provides food and shelter for wildlife adapted to a specific niche in the riparian or inundation forest. This unique eco-system is visited by numerous migratory birds from North America. Our natural reserve provides a shelter for both flora and fauna.
