Guiana Amazonian Park, Protected rainforest reserve in southern French Guiana
The national park spans 3.4 million hectares of primary forest, containing 5,800 plant species and numerous rivers crossing dense vegetation.
The establishment process began at the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, leading to its official creation on February 27, 2007.
The territory encompasses lands of Wayana, Wayampi, Teko Amerindians, Aluku, and Creole communities, maintaining their traditional ways of life.
Access to the park requires transportation by airplane or pirogue through the Maroni and Oyapock rivers, with 130 kilometers of trails available.
The park hosts 90 amphibian species, 133 reptiles, 520 birds, and 182 mammals, including red howler monkeys and jaguars.
