The less-visited area of northeastern Peru is a good stopover for tourists en route from the coast to Chachapoyas, or vice versa. The Moyobamba [1] cloud forest, along with Tarapoto [2], is Peru’s best off-the-beaten path jungle.
While the cities themselves have only a mild draw, the surrounding areas are rich in activity and natural beauty.
