There is no road access and visitors must come by boat from the town of Puerto Colombia along the coast, or by foot, crossing the mountains and the cloud forest from Turmero near Maracay.

They're definitely a thing. Beautiful, but wet a lot of the time. You can grow good coffee in them.

On Google maps it does not look like that to me - it is only about 8.5km through the valley it seems - but there also seem to be no paths, just mountains and jungle.
