About this tour

el imposible national park el salvador

Introduction

This Park is one of the most important areas in the country, it is a globally threatened ecosystem (Tropical Dry and Tropical Dry Premontane Forest), and one of the last refuges for an incredibly diverse community of wildlife.

Among the benefits of the Park is the regulation of climate, increased infiltration, production of water, reduction of runoff, soil protection and possession of scenic beauty for sustainable tourism development.

The Impossible is immersed in two climatic zones: warm earth (250 to 800 meters above sea level) and cooler earth (800 to 1425 meters above sea level).
