Tips

Beyond the Horizon

February 4, 2023

The Pico Oriental in Venezuela is a true hiking paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers. The highest mountain in the state of Mérida offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

But Pico Oriental is not only a popular trekking spot, it is also a significant part of Venezuelan history. A hacienda was built here in the 19th century, which can still be visited today.

A visit is definitely worth it, because from up here you can enjoy an unforgettable view. The hike to the summit, while challenging, is worth every step. On the way you will encounter a rich variety of flora and fauna and be enchanted by the beauty of nature.

Those visiting the Pico Oriental can also admire the Andes chain from here, as well as the Táchira state and the city of Mérida in the valley. So it's definitely worth taking a camera with you to capture these breathtaking moments.
