EXPEDITION AMAZON 2010

From the snowcap glaciers of the Andes at 16,500 feet altitude, down to the remote jungle of the Amazon basin at about sea level, ECO PLANET ADVENTURES are all about daily challenges: On Levels 2 and 3 the team does a fair amount of extreme expeditions, some of which includes hiking 10 miles a day in dense jungle environment mainly over rough terrain. Other activities include mountain climbing, off-road mountain biking, white water rafting and rappelling of waterfall cascades some of which reach as high as 300 feet. They maneuver their ways along the Amazon Basin Rivers by using primitive dugout canoes and self-built Balsa rafts. They practice jungle survival skills as they interact with the remote Amazonian indigenous tribes and encounter endless wildlife, fauna and flora the rainforest offers. Anacondas, Jaguars, Monkeys, Piranhas and toucans are only few to mention.
