El Ávila National Park
Caracas,


Neighborhood: Cerro El Ávila

Map | add to Travel Bag (NEW)


December marks the start of Caracas’ dry season, and it is a good time to escape the city for the mountains. El Ávila range looms north of the city and the park is surprisingly accessible from downtown. Hikers and walkers will find more than 200 km of trails, but a cable car, or teleférico, climbs the imposing slopes in a quick 12-minute ride for those desiring a faster ascent. On clear days, El Ávila Peak offers breathtaking views of Caracas and the Caribbean. The park can get quite crowded on weekends, so if at all possible, schedule your visit for a weekday instead.
