Where you'll be

The journey is usually made from Pucallpa. From Pucallpa it is about 3 hours by car to Yuyapichis and from there you can take a boat across the Pachitea River. Depending on the river level, you can take the boat across the Yuyapichis to the station or walk or tractor to the station (about 1 hour each way). Transport from Yuyapichis to the station is included in the price.
