Laguna de Mucubají is one of Venezuela’s most accessible high-altitude lakes, located within the Sierra Nevada National Park. The lake sits in a glacial cirque carved during the last ice age.
The surrounding páramo is covered in frailejones (Espeletia), giant rosette plants endemic to the northern Andes.
