Later we go down to the mysterious cloud forest full of beautiful orchids, plants and primitive ferns. We stop for the opportunity to see the bird: “Gallito de las rocas” (Rupicola peruviana) in their mating ritual and also the unique types of plants and with some luck the spectacle bear. You will certainly have a rare opportunity to encounter one of the unique sights of South America. We’ll spend the night in a typical hostel in the village of Pillcopata.

Day 3 - We start the day going up high to the Collpa. The guide will explain about the parrots and macaws there. Little by little dozens of parrots start to come down, often hundreds are seen. The macaws gather in masses and multiple colors are seen, after this, we return and in the evening we go on a walk to explore the diverse trails around the lodging.

Day 4 - The journey by boat continues and we can observe the spectacular wildlife on the banks of the river like: groups of turtles, white caimans (Caimán cocodrylus) and some ronsocos (Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris). In the afternoon we camp at Cocha Otorongo. A little later we organize a walk to visit the lake and the observation tower where we have the opportunity to observe the river wolves. We spend the night at the camping round on platforms with roofs.

Day 5 - This the group visits Cocha (pond) Salvador and we have 30 minutes to spend at Cocha Otorongo, navigating in silence and observing the wildlife, like river wolves, and later walk the principal trails.. We spend the night at the camp ground on platforms with roofs. Optional night walk.
