Cuesta La Dormida

Cuesta La Dormida is a mountain in central Chile. Some of the forested mountain area of Cuesta La Dormida has been added to the La Campana National Park[1] in order to achieve protection for the Jubaea and other endangered species. Forests on Cuesta La Dormida provide habitat for a number of bird and mammal[2] species in addition to the flora mosaic itself.
