Birding
Home » Birding
1900+ species of birds (of which 120+ are endemic) is a powerful reason to make Peru one of the most sought after countries for Birding. From great Pelagics and shore birding in the enriched waters of the Humboldt current to hilly terrain in the east andean slope creating unique and isolated hábitats; the High Andes, where the largest number of tropical glaciers in the world are located to exuberant cloud forest and the extensive Amazon rainforest. The Peruvian diversity is immense, in a total surface of 1,285,215 squared kilometers, it’s territory goes from the equator to almost the limit of the Tropic of Capricorn; in the other hand the Andes raise from sea level in the Pacific towards 6,700 masl (22,200 feet) and down again towards the Amazon basin to less than 100 meters; the possible habitats that can be found in Peru are unimaginable, placing the country as one of the 10 most bio diverse countries in the world.
Three roads penetrate the country parallelly through the coast, andes and amazonian basin. If you haven´t decided yet how to approach your trip in this wonderful country, (Link to Areas of birding in Peru).
