Activities at La Selva Jungle Lodge 
 
You can choose to trek, hike, fish, swim, paddle canoes, birdwatch, butterfly watch, photography or simply relax.  
 

135 Foot Observation Tower 

Not far from La Selva Jungle Lodge you can observe many birds flying by at eyelevel, wildlife of all kinds, and, yes, a bird's-eye view of it all, from the top platform of La Selva Jungle Lodge's observation tree tower.  
 

Bird Watching 

With perhaps the highest species list in the neo-tropics, La Selva Jungle Lodge uses native birding experts for those guests with this singular passion.  

The Natives speak minimal English, but know the names of all the birds, and, more importantly, how to find them.  

Please specify in advance if you are a birder and would like to take advantage of this service that La Selva Jungle Lodge offers.  
 

Expeditions:

Below is a partial list of activities that La Selva Jungle Lodge offers. Trained Naturalist guides and Native assistants will accompany you during all your adventure.


El Salado 

El Salado Excursion is a two-hour excursion often combined with a picnic lunch and trips across the Napo River. Visit a site where, with a little luck, parrots and parakeets, by the thousands can be seen.  
 

Walk by a Native's House 

Cross Garzacocha Lake.  La Selva Jungle Lodge takes you to a two and a half to three hour walk on a purposely underdeveloped trail which has some physical challenge.  Half of the walk takes place in Ecuador's primary rainforest and the other half passes the huts of La Selva Jungle Lodge Indigenous neighbours along the Napo River.  
 

High Forest Trail 

Cross the Napo River and arrive at a challenging mountainous trail, which offers yet another ecosystem.  It is a chance to see birds and wildlife nowhere else seen.  Try the lemon ants!  The duration of the High Forest Trail can vary between three to five hours.  
 

Mandicocha Trail 

An easy trail close to La Selva Jungle Lodge which is usually filled with wildlife, no matter what hour of the day you take the Mandicocha Trail expedition.  
 

Pilche Trail 

La Selva Jungle Lodge take you on the Pilche Trail where you will cross the Garzacocha Lake and walk for one hour or more. Through the Pilche Trail you will see an enormous colony of leafcutter ants and whatever wildlife may come your way.

La Selva Jungle Lodge has canoe or walking trips after dark to view nocturnal animals such as caiman, monkeys, insects and owls.

Chawamango's Trail
