COLPA THE TOWER
Very early we will have the opportunity to take a 10-minute boat ride to Colpa La Torre, a ravine 4m high and 20m long, which has veins of clay necessary for the diet of macaws, parrots, parakeets and occasionally some mammals such as deer. capybara, squirrels, etc. At the site there is an observation hide just 30m from the clay wall, which allows for an excellent observation point.
During the activity, the instructions given by the guide the night before must be followed.
The crops in the farms also have open areas with papaya and banana trees that attract different types of fruit birds, such as silver beaks, orioles, orioles, toucanets, woodpeckers, etc.
LAKES
TOWER
Lakes: Mountains, Duck, Lizard and Solitary clay lick
We have breakfast to depart by boat upriver for 15 minutes. They will visit the area and the trails that surround these lakes and mammal clay licks, the geographical characteristics and their location within the Tambopata National Reserve, which has high biodiversity.
We will disembark at the checkpoint at the tower to register and continue along the trail, crossing the ravine to visit the lakes that are Cocha Montes, Pato Cocha and Lagarto Cocha. The journey will last 4 to 5 hours and will become increasingly more interesting as you go. Listen to the guide's description of plants for medicinal, artisanal use, we will also pass by the mammal clay lick called Colpa Solitaria because it is the last of a group of clay licks that come from the south where pecareis, tapir and deer are frequently found.
This place is used by members of the La Torre community. They make sustained use of these resources, such as for the construction of their homes, making their crafts, and as a source of plants for medicinal use. This added to the interest in complementing these traditional activities with economically sustainable activities such as ecotourism.
On the way back we will have lunch at the Inotawa lodge.
