The PNN Farallones de Cali encompasses 150,000 ha (580 sq mi) in the mountains as well as much of the Pacific slope and is an area of very high biodiversity.

In this territory are located the district of Pichinde, Andes and Leonera, and two villages Penas Blancas and Lomas de la Cajita.

The PNN Farallones de Cali is the largest national park in the Valle del Cauca Department and was formed in 1968.

The ecosystems in the park face several threats including commercial logging, illegal mining,[5] agriculture, tourism, forest fires, hunting and road construction.

The spectacled bear (Tremarctos ornatus)[9] has suitable habitat on the western slope of the mountains and is listed as a vulnerable species.
