Sandoval
Lake Lodge
Tambopata, Peru. |
|
| Located deep in Peru's Tambopata
National Reserve, our Sandoval Lake lodge overlooks sparkling,
palm-rimmed Sandoval Lake, the most beautiful and wildlife-rich
of all lakes in Tambopata-Madidi. This privileged location
gives you exclusive access to the lake in the early morning
and late afternoon, the choice hours for wildlife viewing
and photography. |
|
No other lodge in Tambopata-Madidi is on the banks
of a protected oxbow lake. Our short Sandoval Lake Lodge program
includes two nights of fully-screened accommodation in 25 double-occupancy
rooms complete with en suite facilities with hot-water showers,
electricity, fans, meals, airport transfers in Puerto Maldonado,
naturalist guides, lake excursions by day in search of Giant Otters,
monkeys, and macaws, forest excursions, night excursions in search
of caimans, and evening slide shows. Our lodge specializes in small
groups and individualized attention in our overriding quest to conserve
the lake and surrounding rainforest. Sandoval Lake Lodge is built
out of ecologically-correct driftwood mahogany and is owned jointly
by a nonprofit conservation group and five families of indigenous
Brazil nut collectors.

Moon
Handbook |
This comfortable lodge has a privileged location on Lago
Sandoval, a crystal-clear lake fringed with Mauritia palms
and teeming with aquatic birds. The lodge’s operator,
InkaNatura, often combines a trip to this lodge with a sister
operation near the Bolivia border, the Heath River Wildlife
Center.

guides of Discovery Channel Sandoval Lake Lodge |
the best of those near Puerto Maldonado. With comfortable
accommodation and wildlife viewing from the lodge; on a
beautiful oxbow lake, with lots of birds, and monkeys, some
giant otters, and not too much walking.

The best lodge is Sandoval Lake Lodge, which is on the
other side of the lake. Getting there is half the fun. After
hiking the 3km to the lake, you board paddled canoes to
negotiate narrow canals through a flooded palm-tree forest
inhabited by hundreds of nesting red-bellied macaws. Emerging
from the flooded forest, you are silently paddled across
the beautiful lake to the lodge, which is owned and operated
by InkaNatura
