Resumen

Introduction

Five days inside Pacaya Samiria National Reserve allow you to move beyond the main river routes and spend several nights surrounded by forest and waterways.

The journey begins in Iquitos with an overland transfer to Nauta. From there, the road ends and the Marañón River becomes the main route. Approximately three hours of navigation lead toward the reserve, with opportunities to look for pink and gray river dolphins along the way.

The following days move through the Yanayacu and Pucate sectors, combining wildlife searches, botanical walks, traditional fishing methods and evenings shaped by Amazon stories and forest sounds.

Days 3 and 4 move farther from the base area. You stay at Chambira Camp and later Iricachua Camp, travel through smaller waterways, look for monkeys and caimans, learn about forest plants and walk toward a giant Lupuna tree.

With WildForest Peru, this route is intended for travelers prepared for several days of river travel, humid forest conditions and two nights of basic tent camping inside Pacaya Samiria.
