Then we'll descend through the mysterious cloud forest full of beautiful orchids, heliconias and primitive ferns; taking small breaks to give the opportunity to witness the bird "Cock of the Rock" (rupicola peruvian) in the mating ritual. There are also possibilities to observe trogons (Trogon sp.) And more. If we got luck we could see the only South American bear, the spectacled bear (Tremarctos ornatus).
