This is one of three jungle lodges set up by a Peruvian ecotourism company in collaboration with the indigenous Ese-Eja community of Infierno in the Tambopata national reserve. The rooms are furnished with wood and cane, and dinner is served by candlelight in a lofty, palm-thatched communal dining hall where one end opens out on to the jungle.

Early morning climbs up a rainforest-canopy tower are led by an ex-hunter from the village who is now the lodge's top birding guide, and there are night walks and botanical trips to Centro Nape.
