Our Bolivian Jungle collection of gear, flies, tackle, clothing and accessories is curated by our team of professionals that have spent more time on the water here than anyone in the business. Whether it is in-store, online, or through a virtual outfitting appointment, we would love to lend a hand getting your gear organized for a trip to the Bolivian Jungle.
The Tsimane lodges are located in a National Park and Indigenous Indian Territory situated in the Sub-Andean strip of the tropical Andes Mountains between Peru and Bolivia. Lodges and camps are only accessible by charter flights to a remote airstrip in the heart of the jungle. In other words, right smack in the middle of nowhere!
