Sandoval Lake

We start at our office and head out by boat, a 40-minute ride on the Madre De Dios River. Arriving at the Tambopata National Reserve, just 5 minutes separate us from the entrance to Sandoval Lake.
The hike covers 3 kilometers (1 hour), along a clean trail that crosses a well-preserved bridge, taking us to the lake where we will be able to spot:

- Up to 4 species of monkeys
- Snakes
- Tarantulas
- Tropical birds
- Parrots
- Mammals

At the end of the hike, a canoe awaits us to explore Sandoval Lake. We sail along the right bank in search of wildlife, spotting tropical birds on the shores, herons, caimans and the emblematic 2-meter giant river otter, symbol of Madre De Dios.
At 1:00 pm, we enjoy a lunch prepared by Luis and his family, with typical food such as juane and regional refreshments. After a brief rest in the hammocks of our lodge, we return to the canoe to continue exploring, looking for more wildlife and monkeys that usually jump along the banks.
At 4:00 pm, our boat awaits us on the Madre De Dios River for the return to Puerto Maldonado.
