Area in Los Queñes

It’s about a territory of over 25,940 acres located in the area of Los Queñes, making it one of the most extensive protected areas in the Maule region, ensuring the perpetual conservation of an unfragmented and ecologically healthy landscape in the country’s most threatened ecosystem.

These features are uncommon in the central area of the country, which is characterized by the highest population density in Chile and is heavily exploited by industrial and commercial activities. Consequently, this area is subject to significant pressure for land conversion for these purposes.
