Cerro Azul de Copán National Park is a protected natural area in the western Highlands of Honduras. The park conserves an environmentally vulnerable cloud forest reserve. The park is also known for its hiking and mountaineering opportunities on the 2,285 meter high peak that gives the park its name. The park is remote and difficult to access, which helps preserve its pristine cloud forests.
The park is 10 kilometers northeast of the El Florido border crossing. The nearest city is Santa Rosa de Copán, 28 kilometers from the park.
