What to Know About Alto Amazonas
Key Facts
Alto Amazonas is a province located in the Loreto Region of northeastern Peru, situated in the vast Amazon Basin. This province covers approximately 18,764 square kilometers of predominantly tropical rainforest terrain and serves as an important administrative division within Peru's largest region. Positioned in the western portion of Loreto, Alto Amazonas borders Ecuador to the north and contains the upper reaches of the Amazon River system, including significant tributaries that define its landscape. With an estimated population of around 120,000 people, the province represents one of the more populated areas within the Peruvian Amazon, though population density remains relatively low due to the extensive forest cover. Alto Amazonas is divided into 11 districts, each with its own municipal government and administrative center, reflecting the province's organizational structure across its remote territories. The provincial capital of Yurimaguas serves as the main urban hub and transportation center for the region, connecting river and road networks.
