Cotococha Lodge 2-Night Itinerary

AM: After breakfast, we depart by canoe upriver for ten minutes, arriving at a small riverbank where we begin a fun and thrilling one hour walk, marveling at the secondary forest’s diverse flora and fauna. After a while, we’ll find ourselves at a breathtaking waterfall, “La Cascada de Latas,” where we will take a refreshing swim in its clear crystal waters and enjoy the surrounding views. Mixed with the jungle sounds, this will make for an unforgettable experience. We will return along the same route at have lunch at the lodge.

PM: After lunch we will put on our “wet gear” (rubber boots & rain poncho) to start an exciting walk in the rainforest, ready to find the secret wonders of the mysterious hidden jungle. Your expert native guide will explain in detail the characteristics of amazing plant species that possess medicinal properties and how these were used by the jungle’s inhabitants in earlier times. We’ll also observe a great variety of insects as well as small groups of monkeys racing through giant trees. Though we will need some luck to observe them, you will have to stay very quiet to admire these beautiful creatures. Dozens of curious colorful birds will likely tag along with us during our walk, whistling enchanted notes that delight our senses. After about three hours of walking, we will return to the lodge, where that evening we will have dinner and gather around the fireplace. That night you should have a good and peaceful sleep delighted by the sounds of the jungle.
