La Grita is a river that partly runs along the Colombian-Venezuelan border. Copper mining has taken place near it.[1]
It was navigable from the port of Guamas (puerto de Guamas) by boats ("bongos") and canoes.[2]
The town of La Fria borders the river.[3] The town of La Grita is at the confluence of La Grita River and the Zulia River.[3][4][5]
In 1926 plans to extend the Tachira Railway from Oropé Station to the river were noted.[6]
Parque El Pinar overlooks the river.[7]
