Located in the region known as Valdivian temperate rainforest, the forest can be more specifically described as Andean-Patagonian forest, and lies in a sub-region called the Araucanía Mountain range.
The park also belongs to the region of deciduous forests, and within it, to the sub-region of the Andean deciduous forests.
The first sub-region features the High-Andean deciduous forests with Araucaria araucana, while the second has the mixed Andean deciduous forest.
The araucaria, which is currently considered a vulnerable species, is one of the most notable features of Huerquehue National Park.
