Tabaconas Namballe National Sanctuary
Tabaconas Namballe National Sanctuary, Protected natural reserve in San Ignacio Province, Peru
The sanctuary spans 32,124 hectares across mountainous terrain with rocky outcrops, steep slopes, and plains in the Cordillera de Tabaconas.
Environmental studies in the 1940s in Jaén and San Ignacio provinces led to forest area reservations, resulting in the sanctuary's establishment in 1988.
The sanctuary contains archaeological discoveries including the Manchara petroglyphs and the village of Coyona, revealing the region's ancient settlements.
Visitors can observe 186 bird species, spectacled bears, mountain tapirs, and white-tailed deer while exploring the sanctuary's diverse ecosystems.
Las Arrebiatadas Lakes within the sanctuary received Ramsar site designation in 2007, marking their international importance for wetland conservation.
