Saracá-Taquera National Forest

Saracá-Taquera National Forest is a large protected rainforest area spanning several municipalities in Pará state. The forest contains dense vegetation and supports a wide range of plant and animal species throughout its territory.

The forest was protected by the Brazilian government in 1989 and has been managed by ICMBio since then. This decision was part of efforts to preserve the rainforest and the species living there.

Local people around the forest use the land in ways passed down through generations, while following guidelines that help keep resources available for the future.

Visitors can reach the forest through Porto Trombetas on the Trombetas River or through nearby towns on the borders. It helps to check local conditions and any required permits before planning your visit.

The forest is home to rare bird species like the glossy antshrike found nowhere else. These species attract birdwatchers and nature lovers, showing the special biological value of this area.
