Located about halfway between Miranda and the Bolivian border in Lower Pantanal, Brazil. After a 5 hours westerly drive drive from Campo Grande, you reach one of the best wetlands on the Earth, flooded every year by the Paraquay River, which provides home to the endangered Hyacinth Macaw and hundreds of other bird and mammal species. The lodge will not only provide you with your basic needs of comfort (electricity, hot shower, comfortable beds, great food and facilities that include 23 rooms in 3 buildings), but will bring an unlimited array of photogenic species on your 'plate'. In our hides, we will guarantee excellent images of over 40 species of birds, including Toco Toucan, Bare-faced Curassaw, Southern Crested Caracara and Road-side Hawk. The area also has an amazing list of other photogenic wildlife, such as snakes, monkeys, armadillos and insects. We have 8 hides at the area – one tower dedicated to photograph the amazing Hyacinth Macaws for 5 people, two drinking stations in two different forest patches (3 people each) and the 5 different vulture hides, which are one-person cabins.
