Here we head downstream for a 25-minute trip to the landing at Sandoval Lake. We will stop to watch birds and butterflies, and walk – or take a rickshaw ride – along the 3 km trail to the boat channel.
As our crew paddles back to the lodge (motors are prohibited here), we may see the surface of the lake crossed by a huge paiche, an Amazonian fish that can reach 100 kg.
Here we will have the opportunity to observe the famous Amazonian giant otters and then have lunch and then explore the western part of the lake, here it is common to hear in the forest margin the famous red-bellied macaws and blue and yellow and in particular the monkeys that have already lost their fear of humans and return to the lodge for dinner and then continue with our activity and go to observe the black caimans very common in this place,
