The river decides what the forest shows you. Pick your month.
High water season
The river floods the forest: canoe between treetops, more boat access, dolphins closer to the lodges.
Low water season
Beaches surface and trails open: best for wildlife tracking, fishing and long forest hikes.
Transition season
The river is on the move: a mix of trails and flooded forest, with fewer travelers.
