Our truck had to stay outside! We drove 2 hours by bus from lago agrio to the reserve and then 3 hours by motor canoe on the cayabeno river to the nicky amazon lodge. Attached some impressions…

san augustín / colombia
The so called indian culture „san augustín“ disappeared in the 14th century a.d. and left hardly any information for posterity. The oldest testimonies are from the 3rd millennium b.c. and from 1000 a.d. the decline began. In the meantime about 500 stone figures are known and mostly in connection with gravesites. Well, only the dead had survived.
trampolín de la muerte (death road) / colombia
Around 1930 this road was built and its said to be one of the most dangerous roads in the world. Well, here I have only few pictures of this scenically very beautiful road, wait for the video to judge…
On the way we met brett, an american from nebraska, who was following a jonny cash song, following all the places mentioned in the song. “i´ve been everywhere, man”

isla corota
The forests in the Colombian Cordilleras are frighteningly cut down, everywhere bare slopes, everywhere erosion. All the more enjoyable, if you can visit small paradises. The mini island “isla corota” is such a pearl that lies in the laguna de la cocha. A natural paradise and protected as a national park. But why in the devil’s name they had build a large church on this place? Were nature conservation funds to obstruct?
