Opis

The reserve is located at an altitude of 850 meters above sea level, where the foothills of the Andes and the Amazon meet. The reserve covers 130 hectares and consists mainly (90%) of primary forest. Due to its location, the reserve is home to a wide variety of bird species (lowland, Andes, and foothills). The reserve has two platforms in the trees with views over the surrounding canopy.

To date, more than 450 species have been recorded, including some special and rare ones: Red-winged Wood-Rail, Black Tinamou, Nocturnal Curassow, Salvin's Curassow, Foothill Screech-Owl, Buff-tailed Sicklebill, Gould's Jewelfront, Black-faced Hawk, Fulvous Antshrike, Hairy-crested Antbird, Spectacled Bristle-Tyrant, Buff-throated Tody-Tyrant and Gray-tailed Piha.
