The Admirable Campaign (Spanish: Campaña Admirable) was a military expedition conducted by the United Provinces of New Granada and allied venezuelan republican forces against spanish royalist control in western and central Venezuela between 14 of May and 6 of August 1813, during the Spanish American wars of Independence, Colombian war of Independence and Venezuelan war of Independence.
The campaign was led by Simón Bolívar, a venezuelan-born officer serving as brigadier in the New Granadan army, with military and logistical support from the United Provinces of New Granada and the Free and Independent State of Cundinamarca.
Its combined forces included mostly New Granadan troops, Venezuelan republican officers and locally recruited volunteers.
