The Teta de Niquitao-Guirigay Natural Monument is a protected natural area located in the state of Trujillo, Venezuela. It has the highest mountain in the state with a height of 4006 meters above sea level. It is located in the Niquitao parish of the Boconó municipality, and this Andean landscape is emblematic for all Trujillanos.

This natural monument was promulgated according to decree No. 1,473 on September 4, 1996 and published in Official Gazette No. 36,063 on October 11, 1996. It was justified by the need to protect and conserve landscapes made up of monocline ridges, paramos, and relicts of cloud forest. Its preservation is the responsibility of the National Parks Institute, which must guarantee the conservation and preservation of the area’s natural and cultural resources.

Teta Niquitao (4,006 meters above sea level) is also known by the name of Musi or Picacho peak (local name derived from the term peak). This monument can be reached from the city of Boconó, going to the towns of Tostós and Niquitao, along a road that ascends to approximately 3,400 meters above sea level.
