unesco

UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, inscribed 2021, in Peru. Located in the provinces of Satipo and La Convención in central Peru, Avireri Vraem ranges from 280–6,271 m in altitude. It hosts 12 ecosystems across three ecoregions: the Amazonian rainforest at the foot of the Andes, the Yungas on steep mountain slopes with montane and cloud forests, and the Andean region in the heights of the Andes mountain range. The biosphere reserve establishes a link between Peru’s Oxapampa Ashaninka Yanesha and Manu biosphere reserves.
