Established through a forestation project in the early 20th century by Héctor Manuel Guerrero, Cariló is characterized by dense pine forests and sand dunes. Local regulations protect the forest by limiting tree removal and requiring replanting. The town's roads consist exclusively of sandy trails, without asphalt or concrete.
