Limoncocha Lagoon Canoe Session

Amazon Canopy Tower Session Sani Lodge

After crossing the lagoon, a 20-minute walk leads to the observation tower, built on the flank of a Kapok tree about 35 m high. It opens an unobstructed view over the Amazonian canopy — and canopy birds, often above 30 m, are among the hardest to observe in Amazonia; the tower greatly eases the task.

Walk to the 36-metre canopy tower built around a giant ceibo tree. From above the forest floor, search for tanagers, toucans, macaws, and monkeys moving through the canopy—one of the lodge’s best birding and photography opportunities.
