The Canopy Walkway is an experience that is without parallel in
the rainforest! One third of a mile long, reaching 120 feet above the ground and
extending through 12 of the area's largest trees, the canopy walkway is
accessible to everyone, requiring no special skills or equipment. The Canopy
Walkway was built and is maintained by the Peruvian Foundation CONAPAC and the
ACEER. Foundation, and is the longest Walkway in the world reaching the
rainforest canopy. The Walkway has opened up research in an area where little is
known and much is left to be learned.
