It is located to the southwest of Poás Volcano and is very important for the protection of the drainage basins supplying water to agriculture and fisheries and for urban use in a wide area of the Central Western Valley. The primary forest covers 75% of the whole area. Within this reserve is the 40-hectare Bosque de los Niños, consisting of a plantation of trees planted by children. It is very important as a recreational area, besides being very beautiful, and accessible from Grecia along a mostly asphalted road.
