PERU ADVENTURE

The Cordillera de Colán Reserved Zone (Spanish: Reserva Comunal Cordillera de Colán) is a protected area in Peru located in the Amazonas Region, in the Bagua and Utcubamba provinces
Reserved Zone of Cordillera Colan was established by Ministerial Resolution No. 0213-002-AG, the first of March 2002 and reaches an area of 64,114.74 hectares. It is located in the Department of Amazonas, between the rivers Utcubamba Chiriaco and in the provinces of Bagua and Utcubamba. This area comprises a small part of the Cordillera de Colan, which is a branch of the semi-isolated from the Eastern Cordillera of the Peruvian Andes.

The reserve zone includes a sample of Mountain Forests in three altitudinal levels (pre, hilly and mountainous). As a result of a combination of climatic and geographical aspects, much of the three altitudinal forests correspond to cloud forests biome (or Ceja de Selva).

Generating capacity and regulating water Neblina Forest is perhaps one of the most important environmental features of the Reserved Zone of Cordillera Colan. The northern sector includes the upper reaches of the river and nascent Shushug, Chiriaco main tributary of the River and other tributaries of the nascent minor
