The northern part of the Zapata swamps. Mostly moist reed vegetation with sporadic mangrove groves, thickets and small canals. Note: Only possible with guide!

Beschrijving

A beautiful place that gives you an impression how the heart of the Zapata swamps looks like. The easiest accessible area for Zapata Wren, Zapata Sparrow and some say they have even seen the Zapata Rail here in the early morning. Also many migrating warblers and good chances for quaildoves.

Toegang

During dry season best to visit with a car, due to the long distances. Also possible by bike, but the gravel road is not always in good condition. Also the mosquitos are a real plague here. During wet season an offroad-vehicle might be useful. Also the roads and paths are really confusing, so rely on a guide!
