The moorland soils are largely of recent glacial and volcanic origin, and many of them are still in full formation; In some places can reach several meters thick..

This structure is the basis for the fundamental environmental service of the páramo: the storage and distribution of clean and constant water to the low sites, where it is used for irrigation, potable water and hydroelectricity. The strategic importance of these soils and that of the vegetation that protects them, as well as their fragility, have begun to be treated from several points of view.
