Manu and Tambopata Reserved Zone Tours 6 Days Overview:

Manu National Park is a biosphere reserve and national park located in the Madre de Dios region of Peru. It is one of the largest and most biodiverse parks in South America and has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The park covers an extensive area of approximately 1,716,295 hectares, stretching from the lowland Amazon rainforest to the high mountains of the Andes. This varied geography contributes to the incredible biological diversity of the park, hosting a vast array of plant and animal species.

Manu National Park is divided into three main zones: the Special Use Zone, the Reserved Zone, and the Cultural Zone. The Special Use Zone is intended for scientific research and environmental education, while the Reserved Zone is the most strictly protected and only allows access to authorized researchers and scientists. The Cultural Zone is home to indigenous communities, such as the Matsiguenga and Amahuaca, who have lived in harmony with nature for centuries.

The park is home to an astonishing variety of species, including over 800 species of birds, 200 species of mammals, 100 species of reptiles and amphibians, and a diverse range of plants and trees. Iconic species found in the park include the jaguar, giant anteater, Amazonian tapir, and blue-headed macaw.

In addition to its rich biodiversity, Manu National Park is also renowned for its scenic beauty. It features stunning landscapes, ranging from dense tropical rainforests to high snow-capped mountains. It also houses the spectacular Manu Canyon, which offers panoramic views and a unique habitat for numerous species.

Due to its ecological significance, Manu National Park is subject to strict regulations to protect its biodiversity and maintain its natural balance. Access to the park is limited, and special permits are required to enter. This ensures the long-term conservation of this valuable Amazonian ecosystem.

In summary, Manu National Park in Peru is a priceless natural treasure. Its vast expanse, biological diversity, and breathtaking landscapes make it a unique destination for scientific research, ecotourism, and nature conservation.
