Ese'Eja native community and ethnobotanical trail

Visit to the Ese'Eja native community of Infierno and a walk along an ethnobotanical trail in Tambopata, with guide. Medicinal plants and traditional Amazon knowledge.

A boat leg along the Tambopata river leads to the territory of the Ese'Eja community of Infierno. The route follows a trail where medicinal plants, timber trees and crops that are part of the community's daily life grow.

Along the way, a community member explains the use of each plant: those used to treat ailments, those used in traditional preparations and those valued as food. The walk brings closer the botanical knowledge passed down through generations of the Ese'Eja people.
