Wayqechas Cloud Forest Walkway
The ACEER Foundation is providing funding for the design, construction, and operation of two new Canopy Walkways in the Peruvian Amazon.  The first, in partnership with the Amazon Conservation Association, will be the largest canopy walkway in the world and the first ever in the highland Amazonian Cloudforest.  It will employ a state-of-the-art non-tree attached technology and have classrooms and laboratories located in towers within the cloudforest canopy.  Located at Wayqechas, Peru, the gateway to Manu Biosphere Reserve, it will be a major educational research resource for visitors to the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu.  ACEER will also build and operate a Nature Interpretation and Visitors Center associated with the walkway.
