The BRBR's southern boundaries are located more or less one hour drive from Loreto, heading north-west bound. From there, it is a two hours walk through beautiful jungle to reach the camping. Then it is about 3 hours throught lush rainforest to get to the banks of the Bigal River, right where Sumaco National Park begins.
