The Natural Reserve was created with the intention of preserving a sample of the habitat of migratory birds for the Cerulean Warbler (Setophaga cerulea), being the first reserve in South America established to protect a migratory bird.
The Natural Reserve, which covers an area of 207.6 hectares, is located on the western slope of the Colombian Eastern Cordillera in San Vicente de Chucurí, department of Santander, geographically bordering to the south with the Serranía de los Yariguíes National Park.
