Created in 1988 by presidential decree by President Jaime Lusinchi. For years the park has been protected by the National Institute of Parks of Venezuela (INPARQUES), which assumes a systematic policy of conservation and preservation of the natural resources of the park.

There is a lot of variety of the flora of the park among them we have: Saladillo, conger, oak, caramacate, drago, saman, coconut monkey and cañafístula, among other plant species. It has a cloak of grass (saeta) that occurs in the whole park and in the winter gives a beautiful landscape tone.
