Putumayo Meanders
Witness the dramatic curves and oxbow lakes of the river that defines the border.
Ecuadorian Frontier
Gaze into the dense, untouched wilderness of the Cuyabeno region to the south.
Oxbow Lakes
Spot ancient riverbeds that have formed isolated lagoons deep in the jungle.
Sun Glint
Morning flights offer spectacular reflections off the water's surface.
Choose the left side for morning departures to avoid the direct glare while seeing the river mist. This side is superior for tracking the international border. Best views are usually found when the plane is cruising at lower altitudes common for this short hop.
