Nuestros antepasados viajaron grandes distancias en busca de caza, pesca y potencial agrícola. Llegaron a esta parte de la selva amazónica y se dieron cuenta de que habían llegado a su nuevo hogar.
La selva, ríos, cuevas, cañones, flora y fauna han hecho de esta majestuosa selva el lugar ideal para el desarrollo de una pequeña comunidad indígena Kichwa. Según los relatos de los lugareños, la conexión espiritual con la naturaleza hace posible encontrar tranquilidad en la selva. Las aguas cristalinas de los ríos aportan una sensación de paz y rejuvenecimiento a cada persona que se baña en ellas.
Este tour es ideal para quienes quieren conectarse con la naturaleza y conocer los secretos y mitos de la selva.
At 9:00 am, meet at the Akangau Jungle Expeditions office in Tena. From there we will take a private car to the Upper Amazon region. The day’s journey begins with a 3-hour walk to an incredible viewpoint that overlooks the impressive panoramic view of the Napo River, which is a direct tributary to the Amazon River. Along the way, the guide will explain how our ancestors used the resources of the jungle to survive. You will learn about the flora and fauna of the jungle including many medicinal plants.
We will stop for lunch amidst the giant Amazon canopy then make our way to the mystical “Route of the Dreams”. This is a thousand-year-old pathway that was used by ancient people to travel between communities and to the Napo River. It is a place that is ripe with ancient cultural heritage and sustainable tourism efforts such as our work towards conserving this enchanting place. Along the way, you will visit the Kali Kali caves where parrots meet once a year to mate. This ancient path travels across clean waters and lush canyons.
