Welcome to the heart of the Peruvian Amazon rainforest and the Amazon Conservatory for Tropical Studies (ACTS).

Based in one of the most biologically diverse forests in the world, the Amazon Conservatory for Tropical Studies (ACTS) supports tropical research, educational initiatives, classes, workshops, and sustainable development projects in the Peruvian Amazon. The ACTS Field Station and ACTS Canopy Walkway are located within the private 4,136-acre Napo-Sucusari Biological Reserve in the upper Amazon basin of northeastern Peru. An extensive trail system through thousands of acres of primary rainforest is available for research and exploration.

The Napo-Sucusari Biological Reserve has one of the longest canopy walkway systems in the world, extending horizontally 500 meters throughout the treetops and reaching a maximum height of nearly 35 meters (115 feet). This system of aerial platforms and pathways allows scientists, educators, and students to observe and study previously inaccessible parts of the rainforest. With access to all levels of the rainforest, the ACTS Field Station and ACTS Canopy Walkway provide the resources to advance tropical research and conservation.
