Activities

At Kapawi you have choices.
We do not offer our visitors a fixed program of activities. Once you arrive at Kapawi Ecolodge, you (or your group)-and your guides-will be able to organize a set of experiences that most suits your individual interests and your desired level of activity. Almost all of your itineraries will include some combination of visits to the Achuar communities, hikes in the rain forest, kayaking in rivers and streams, and bird watching.

We offer the following activities:
Bird watching, hiking on the self-guided trail, night canoeing, clay lick visit, night guided hikes, swimming & tubing, kayaking & canoeing, fishing, overnight camping, Achuar community visits, resting and relaxing.

Birding
Kapawi lodge is a paradise for dedicated bird watchers and amateurs alike. More species of bird are found in the Kapawi area alone than in all of North America. For birders the early morning trip to the clay lick is an adventure not to be missed.

It is helpful for us in planning for your visit to know in advance your desired level of activity. The Personal Information Form that we ask you to submit prior to your visit contains a place for you to give us that information-Easy (short hikes), Moderate (medium and somewhat more challenging hikes), and Difficult (all-day experiences with long hikes) as well as other preferences or special requests. Please be sure to send us that form on a timely basis.
