The Amazon

The Amazon River basin contains one-fifth of the world's fresh water. Its flow is 12 times that of the Mississippi, with 12 billion liters flowing down the river every minute. The Amazon rainforest, with an area greater than six million square kilometers, supports thousands of animal and plant species, many of them still unknown. Over 1800 species of butterflies, five major groups of primates, and over 200 species of mosquitoes are found here. Biologists are unable to identify 30% of the fish found in the markets of Belém, and botanists still bring back dozens of unclassified plants after each foray into the rainforest.

Amazon Ecopark Lodge

Description: Located in the midst of lush jungle on the Rio Tarumã - a tributary of Rio Negro, just half an hour by boat from Manaus, the Ecopark has an educational and research center open to all those interested in discovering the rainforest and all its wonders. Air conditioning bungalows with private baths built in perfect harmony with nature. All the comforts of home in a most exotic setting. The Ecopark is known for its unique and pioneer course of survival in the rainforest: bilingual guides with ample knowledge of the area will teach you how and where to find edible fruits and potable water, learn first aid, to build a shelter, to make bridges of ropes, to find your way in the forest and so much more.
