ECOPARK Jungle Lodge is a touristic, scientific and educational property,
created and directed by a private initiative back in 1991, opening its
doors to the public as an Ecotourism Lodge in 1995. Several streams of
clear water run through the area. Over 6 miles of jungle trails including
un-catalogued species, natural savannahs and creeks enable clients to
explore the jungle, observe orchids and giant trees.
It is a jungle lodge with 20 rustic bungalows
in a preserved forest area with typical regional arquitectural design,
with screened windows. Each bungalow has 3 suites (total of 60 suites)
with hot shower, fan and air conditioning. It is possible to enjoy nature
without giving away your comfort.
The
lodge has a panoramic open-air restaurant with indian style architecture
where up to 120 people can enjoy the delicious recipes from the varied
regional cuisine and international dishes. For breakfast: fresh fruits
of the season (watermelon, papaya, banana etc), variety of regional fruits
juices (taperebá, cupuaçu, açai, graviola etc.),
breads, cookies, white and yellow cheese, ham, cakes, French toast, pancakes,
jams, butter, coffee, milk, hot chocolate and tea. Eggs (scrambled, fried,
omelets) are prepared upon request.
Lunch and Dinner: buffet style, with various
options of beef, chicken or fish ( tambaqui, tucunaré, pirarucu
, pacu etc), warm side dishes (white rice, potatoes (baked, fried or boiled),
vegetables, salads (lettuce, carrots, broccoli, tomato etc.), fresh fruits
of the season (papaya, pineapple, mango, watermelon etc) and various desserts
(cupcake pie with Brazil nuts, ravioli cream, cupcake or passion fruit
pudding, banana and meringue des sert,
chocolate cake, fruit desserts etc. (special diet meals available upon
request - extra charge will apply)
A bar, living room, natural pools, massage room, reading
room and reception lobby are also part of the social areas.
The lodge has two large thatched roof areas
which are an excellent option for group events for private parties or
folkloric shows and regional music performances.
Close to the lodge is the Primate Rehabilitation
Center, a center for primates brought to this local by IBAMA when confiscated
from illegal sales and exports. At this location, primates are initially
kept in quarantine in order to be evaluated and treated by veterinarians
and biologists. After a period of time, primates are reintroduced to the
jungle.
During the years that this project has been
in action, a twice a day food program was developed to feed the primates,
(always at 11:00 a/m and 05:00 p/m). During the feeding process, this
area is opened to visitors under the supervision of guides and specialized
staff, guests of Ecopark Jungle Lodge can observe film and photograph
the animals in a total and
safe environment.
The Amazon Ecopark Lodge is located at the Tarumã
river bank - a tributary of the Rio Negro - in the Amazon Jungle and only
