About Cordillera de Colán

Cordillera de Colán National Sanctuary protects a range of cloud forests on the eastern slopes of the Andes in Amazonas, recognized as one of Peru's most important centers of bird endemism. The sanctuary shelters the Peruvian piedtail hummingbird, numerous orchid species, and the spectacled bear amid exceptionally diverse montane forests. Its isolation and difficult terrain have preserved ecosystems that are largely unknown to science.
