river banks.

we can even observe anacondas in the areas covered by reed). This is
also the habitat of the giant Arapaima, a fish of more than 2,5m,
weighing in at +200kg. Traveling by canoe, the sunset in the lake is a
spectacular unforgettable sight. On our return to the river we might be
able to spot some nocturnal animals.
