Why is Misahualli so special?
Misahaulli is a river town located in the Napo Province, just 30 minutes from the city of Tena or two and a half hours driving from Baños. Your private driver will make it easy to get to this place. This town is placed on the banks of the Napo and Misahualli rivers. Therefore, it is the starting point by canoe or boat to some adventures in the jungle.
This tour is very exciting, above all riding boat by the Napo River, observe the exuberant green vegetation of the jungle, pass near typical communities, and listen to the song of the birds. Some local guides have a lot of knowledge about medicinal and species of plants. Therefore, If you love exciting adventures, Misahualli has an impressive river for rafting or kayaking.
One of the most attractive tours in Misahualli is the Amazon Wildlife Rescue Center. Above all, in this place all kinds of wild animals and birds are rescued, to later be released. It is highly recommended to hike through the jungle to observe the dense vegetation of primary forests. Most importantly, you will have the chance to see the impressive thousand-year-old trees, very colorful birds, and the surprising capuchin monkeys. While you are getting into the jungle, you begin to understand what makes the Amazon so special¡
Are there any other attractions around?
One of the most exciting attractions is walking through the jungle. Likewise, Misahualli has privileged places such as: Blue Lake and Waysa Yacu. These small lagoons of crystalline water are tributaries that flow into the Jatun Yaku River in the middle of the jungle. In other words, these water systems are part of the llanganates National Park.
Another attraction to enjoy is the Yanayacu waterfalls, located 10 minutes from Tena. Therefore, to get to this place you have to walk for an hour through the exuberant vegetation of the jungle. However, the adventure continues along trails that go along the river and that take us through small waterfalls, pass through small caves and finally reach the waterfall. In other words, it’s a worthwhile walk after all!
