FOUR DAYS PROGRAM
DAY 1
Morning: Santa Cruz - Flor de Oro by airplane.
The flight will take up to 2 hours. Flor de Oro is located right on the banks of the Iténiz river in the extreme north-central section of the park. Therefore, en route to the park, you will fly over hundreds of kilometers of pristine rainforest, as well as the magnificent Caparú Plateau with its red cliffs and two very impressive waterfalls named Ahfeld and Arco Iris. When we arrive in Flor de Oro where we will meet with the staff and check into our rooms. Lunch in Flor de Oro
Afternoon: North trail (Cerrado & riverside forest to first bay)
After settling in at the lodge and a relaxing lunch we dive straight in to our wilderness adventure - in the high forest of the North trail. On this three hour walk we may see any of a great number of birds, along with fruits and flowers. Forest mammal sightings of monkeys, capybara and peccaries are also common. We then pass by a large riverine lake before coming out and sampling the wildlife of the savannah for our round trip sunset return to Flor de Oro for supper.
DAY 2
Morning: River Transfer Flor de Oro - Ahlfeld Camp (Várzea forest, aquatic, and river-edge vegetation)
The adventure really begins on this day. Up early, we take the five hour boat ride down the Itenez and onto the Paucerna River, up to the Ahlfeld lodge. This cabin is really remote so we might see anything - to give an idea, previous visitors have quite often seen Jaguars basking out on the beaches of the Paucerna! Abundant Amazonian river and forest edge wildlife is assured throughout the journey.
Lunch in Alhfled Camp
Afternoon: After a hasty meal we take the lower trail (40 mins) to the base of the Ahlfeld Falls where anyone with a camera will be well rewarded and everyone will appreciate the great natural beauty of this unique formation, before enjoying a refreshing swim in the large plunge pool. The trail to the falls takes us through good upland forest, so don't be surprised if we get sidetracked with a group of Spider Monkeys or a pair of curassows on the way.
DAY 3
Morning: Ahlfeld Camp - Ahlfeld Waterfalls - upper trail
If you didn't get enough of the waterfalls yesterday, don't worry. Today the other trail will take us to the most spectacular location; a 40 minute hike through more excellent forest, to the head of the falls themselves.
Lunch in Alhfeld Camp
Afternoon: Ahlfeld Camp - Flor de Oro
After another refreshing meal in the deep forest we make our leisurely way back to Flor de Oro, spotting wildlife on the way and arriving around dusk.
DAY 4
Morning: South trail (Cerrado & riverside forest to first bay)
A morning walk down to the first bay above Flor de Oro rounds off our trip. This is the time to look for anything we may have missed before on the river or, if you can't get enough of those Pink River Dolphins, this is your last chance to wave goodbye. If we have time, we'll go into the riverside forest at the end of the South trail so you can give your last regards to the howler monkeys as well.
