What To Do:

Yacutinga Lodge's ecotourism concept is devoted to produce a wonderful relationship between the visitor and the surrounding nature. This means that everyone visiting Yacutinga Lodge takes part in different environmental activities, such as environmental education-based walks, navigations in Kayas through the waters of the jungle, native trees planting, wildlife observation and classification, and interpretation of natural processes to understand and discover this forest. The aim is to give the most complete information on Misiones Forest, on our traditions and habits. During our activities, we put an emphasis on the forest dynamics, its ecology and importance to man. We share the concept that Nature around us is a living entity functioning as a whole. Each plant or animal species has a specific role in this environmental balance.We want our guest to have an interesting and unique experience while staying at Yacutinga
