Rafting - Tambopata River

Rafting - Tambopata River

This is the most spectacular route in Peru. It begins in Putina Punku (900 masl), Puno, and descends through tropical forests until it reaches the Madre de Dios Amazonian plains (200 masl), before flowing through the Bahuaja Sonene National Park and the Tambopata National Reserve. The river, with grade III and IV rapids, courses through the largest uninhabited part of the country and requires complex logistics and the prior coordination of permits with the offices of the corresponding protected natural areas.
