The Morichales de Paz de Ariporo is a proposed national park in Casanare Department of Colombia.[1] It was formerly referred to as the Humedales de Casanare.[2] The area holds the largest extension of wetlands in eastern Colombia.

The park has many stands of Moriche palm (Mauritia flexuosa) that exist throughout the wetlands.
