Experience an authentic adventure in the Manu Amazon
The experience
Can you imagine waking up surrounded by jungle, listening to the river, walking to a waterfall, and ending the day in hot springs?
Welcome to Hot Springs Jungle, a small nature project located in the Amazon of Madre de Dios, near Shintuya and the Manu.

Program Details
Important:
We are in a remote area of the Amazon.
Therefore, each traveler buys and prepares their own food. Note you have to buy in advance because there is no store around us.
You will have access to our shared kitchen to prepare your meals and we will explain where and how to organize your purchases.
It is important to arrive prepared for a simple and self-sufficient life experience.
Shared meals may occasionally occur as part of cultural exchange, but it is not a guaranteed benefit.
We look for travelers who want to contribute their skills in:
Photography
Video
Instagram and TikTok
Content creation
Gardening and nature
Trail maintenance
Small improvements and decoration
Language exchange.
