One of our favorite Earth Eco Adventures is the Mountain Bike. Enjoy this video filmed by the Cruz Inca Team in the entrance to the Moray and Maras Route, Southern Region - Peru:

Starting from the Huaypo Lagoon, crossing Cruzpata and Maras villages until you reach to Moray
Archeological Complex, then downhill to the Maras Salt Mines and finish your journey at the shores of the Vilcanota river… leaving the white water rafting eco adventure for the next day.

Contact Cruz Inca to enjoy this exciting Eco Adventure in a responsible and safe way. If you want to do it by yourself, please be sure to use full protection equipment for your safety.

There are some small shops in Cruzpata and Maras villages where you can buy beverages and snacks. Don’t forget to make presents (like snacks, fruits) to children or additional contributions to villagers, thanks for helping with the sustainable development of Peru.

Good Birding!

Enjoy this video filmed by the Cruz Inca Team in the Chaparri Natural Reserve, Northern Region - Peru:

The Purple Collar Woodstar is a small and beautiful hummingbird. Distinguished by its warm brown colors underneath and a short white streak behind the eye, this small Woodstar will captivate you with its fast but elegant moves.

The name comes from its brilliant purple and blue throat with greenish flanks. Its bill is longer than in all other Woodstars and the tail is also long and forked. As rare species, it is best seen just after dawn when they gather to bathe at streams.

Contact Cruz Inca to enjoy the Chaparri Natural Reserve and the beautiful and magical experience of this Birdwatch destination.
