Güeppi, Military base in Loreto Region, Peru

Güepí is a Peruvian military base in the district of Teniente Manuel Clavero, Putumayo province, Loreto department, at the mouth of the Güepí River on the tripoint border between Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. It has facilities of the Peruvian Navy and Army. The nearest civilian settlement is Tres Fronteras, a few blocks away.
