Eco Amazonia

Eco Amazonia

Simple jungle lodge in a spectacular setting, offering a flexible and varied programme of excursions.

The simple Eco Amazonia lodge in the Tambopata region consists of 45 individual bungalows, each with a balcony and hammocks. All rooms have en suite cold water shower and toilet; lighting is by kerosene lamp.

The lodge is particularly flexible about the excursions it offers, and will suggest options suited to the capabilities and preferences of each guest.

The surrounding jungle is very impressive, the highlight being the nearby Cocha Perdida lagoon, reached by a 6.5km trail through the rainforest. There's also an observation platform an hour's walk away which allows you to peer into the treetops and see the birds and monkeys that shelter there.
