V!VA User‘s Description
San MartÃn Province is a zone full of fertile valleys and rough terrain that is spread out between the Andean mesa and a small area of lower jungle. There are 980 species of flora, in particular bromeliads, orchids and ferns, more than 220 species of birds, and nearly fifty species of mammals like the yellow-tailed woolly monkey, Andean deer, spectacled bear and jaguar, species nearing extinction.
Tarapoto, located just upstream from Yurimaguas, is a convenient stopping point for the journey from Iquitos to Chachapoyas.
