NIEBLA

Oncol Park (Half-day)

This excursion starts at the pier in Niebla. You take the old road northwards to the enchanting Oncol Park on
the hill with the same name. It expands over more than 750 ha and includes a part of the coastal mountain
range. You will find millenary tree species there, such as Lumas, Melies, Canelos and Mañios. Hike up the Oncol
path and see if you can find local birds such as Hued Hued, Huairavo and Chucao. After about one hour you
reach the top of the hill (715m above sea level). On your way back visit the Niebla Fortress, to learn some
interesting historical facts from the time of struggle for independence from the Spanish. After that and enjoying
once more the great view, you return to the pier.
