Amazonat Jungle Lodge, Manaus

3 STAR, ECO-LODGE                               Back to Brazil Hotel Guide Menu>

LODGE DESCRIPTION

Amazonat Jungle Lodge is one of the very few ‘Genuine Eco Lodges’ in Brazil. It offers adventure and educational activities. For these reasons the lodge is situated in a unique location known for the presence of a pristine, diverse and impressive dry forest (Terra Firme). This dry forest contains many unknown and un-described tree and plant species, far away from the civilized world. From the lodge, various expeditions are undertaken in combination with three (3) river systems:

• The Rio Urubu, a typical black water river known for her Igapo’s
(forest growing in the water)
• The Rio Preto da Eva, another, larger, scenic black water contributor
• The Rio Amazonas, or the mighty Amazon River.

The strength of the ‘Amazonat Formula’ is due to the combined packages of dry forest, black water rivers and the huge Amazon that readily demonstrate the principally different ecosystems supported by these rivers. You will be introduced to the poor but photo genetic black waters (poor in terms of nutrients and life forms) and to the wealthy Amazon river with its staggering abundance of wildlife. This combination enables the lodge to present a programme that guarantees a high level of educational, adventure and amusement value.

LOCATION

Amazonat Jungle Lodge is located in the State of Amazonas, the largest State of Brazil with a surface of 1,000,000 square miles, representing 18% of the total surface of the Brazilian country, from which 65% remains unexplored. Amazonat Jungle Lodge comprises 3,500 acres with over 15,000 acres in reclamation. The private property is primarily dry forest and covered with first generation of undisturbed vegetation. The main lodge is located in a clearing of secondary forest. Two additional camps are constructed in primary forest and these are being used for “survival trips”.
The soil of the lodge produces the dark, highly acid ‘black-water’ that inhibits the growth of mosquito larvae. A stay at Amazon can thus be considered to be virtually mosquito free!

ARRIVAL

Amazonat Jungle Lodge is the only jungle lodge in the State of Amazonas that has a Governmental licence to operate a reservation office at the airport. It is located in the arrival hall, straight opposite of the Varig exit gates 3 & 4.
