Amazon

The area is
renowned for its diverse plant and animal populations and include over 1,300 bird species (including 32 parrot species - 10% of the
world’s total), 200 mammal species including 4 species of primates, 90 frog species, 1,200 butterfly species and 10,000 species of
higher plants—all protected within the reserve. Some of the more famous residents are the Harpy Eagle, the prehistoric looking
Hoatzin, tapir, peccary, jaguar, ocelot and playful river otters who live in the area’s oxbow lakes.
The lodge itself combines native architectural style and materials with low-impact eco-friendly technology. Rooms are simple but
comfortable, with mosquito netting for individual beds, flush toilets, showers (no hot water), and kerosene lamps for lighting (no
electricity). Local community members make up the majority the lodge staff, including multilingual Naturalist Guides. Here you have
the opportunity to learn from them not only about the area’s rich flora and fauna, but also about their extensive practical uses for
medicinal plants and other forest plant resources, through traditional techniques for building, fishing, and hunting.Okumaya devam et
