Heliconia Amazon Lodge is located on the banks of the majestic Amazon river (margin left side) in Yanamono's Communal Reserve, to 80 km away (50 miles away) from Iquitos City. Reserve that deserved the recognition to possess the most quantity of arboreal species in this part of Amazon jungle, due to the fact that it forms part of an ecosystem constituted by diverse types of environments that regionally know like "restingas", "marshes", "tahuampas", "beaches", "mires", "aguajales” that have been generated by the fluvial dynamics of white water of the Amazon river loaded with rich sediments in nutrients for what the soil is a fertile forest.
This recognition and the characteristics of Yanamono's Ecosystem commitment us to protect each portion of this jungle with daily sustainable work with the local communities.
Our Lodge surrounded by finest and exotics collection of Heliconias, valued flowers for its brilliant colors and forms, bromelias, orchids, etc. and close to islands, streams and lagoons full of wildlife offers our visitor wonderful places to rest and spend the time of exciting activities.
