The Sierra de Sumapaz is a mountain range located in the Cundinamarca department of Colombia. It is part of the larger Andes mountain system and is known for its rich biodiversity, including various species of flora and fauna. The area is characterized by its high-altitude wetlands, known as "páramos," which play a crucial role in water regulation for the surrounding regions. This mountain range is also significant for its cultural heritage, as it is home to several indigenous communities. The Sumapaz National Park, established in 1977, protects the unique ecosystems and landscapes of the Sierra, making it an important site for conservation and ecological research.
