We’re the largest private reserve in the State of Amazonas

Located in the municipality of Guajara, in the state of Amazonas, our reserve of  20,000 hectares aims to preserve the full biodiversity of the original rainforest.

Located in the municipality of Guajara, in the state of Amazonas, our reserve aims to preserve the full biodiversity of the original rain forest.

Despite being in the very center of the Amazon rain-forest, lack of income opportunities for the local population and state incentive policies are causing an exponential increase in deforestation, both in the municipality of Guaraja and the state of Amazonas.
