Rainforest Adventures in Peru: Sandoval Lake Lodge |
|
|
Stay at the Sandoval Lodge, facing Peruvian Amazon’s most attractive lake and see the giant otter
| Overview | |
|
Located a short motor canoe ride down the River Madre de Dios from Puerto Maldonado, Sandoval Lake Lodge is perched above what many rainforest specialists feel is the most attractive lake in Southern Peru, if not in the entire Peruvian Amazon. The Lake is home to two of the world’s rarest (and endangered) species, the giant otter and the black caiman. The Rainforest is also the habitat of the world’s largest group of red-bellied macaws, about 450 in a group! Explore 15 miles of dense Rainforest trails around the lodge. Sandoval Lake Lodge is the only lodge in the Puerto Maldonado and Tambopata areas that is situated on a lake and gives you instant access to lake wildlife during the cool hours just after dawn and just before dusk. These hours are also the best for photography when the wildlife around the lake is most visible, active, and photogenic. Those looking for a short, yet comprehensive, introduction to the Amazon Rainforest, have a tailor-made tour awaiting them.
