Fodor's Expert Review Lago Valencia
Tambopata National Reserve and Bahuaja-Sonene National Park
Located near Peru's border with Bolivia, across the Madre de Dios River from the Tambopata Reserve, is the oxbow lake of Lago Valencia. It is much bigger than Lago Sandoval, but has less wildlife and a small community on one end of it. It's a good spot for fishing and bird-watching, but because it is so far away, few lodges offer tours to it.
