• Säsong

  Low water

  The water drops, sandbars and river beaches appear, and the forest floor can be walked instead of paddled — better for tracking animals, worse for reaching the smaller channels. Boats take longer routes.

  High water on the rivers

  15 dec – 15 jun · vanligtvis

  The rivers climb several metres, Belén's lower streets turn back into canals and the flooded forest is reached by paddling between the crowns rather than walking. Lodge trips are boat trips in these months.
