What to Know About Alto Tapiche

Key Facts

Alto Tapiche is a district located in the Requena Province of the Loreto Region in northeastern Peru. Situated within the vast Amazon rainforest basin, this district occupies a remote position in the upper reaches of the Tapiche River, one of the important tributaries of the Ucayali River system. The district covers an extensive area of approximately 12,000 square kilometers of predominantly tropical rainforest terrain, characterized by dense vegetation, winding rivers, and abundant biodiversity. With a population of around 3,000-4,000 inhabitants, Alto Tapiche maintains a low population density typical of Peru's remote Amazonian districts, where communities are often scattered along riverbanks and accessible primarily by boat. The district is administratively divided into several populated centers and smaller settlements that rely on subsistence agriculture, fishing, and limited forest product extraction for their livelihoods. As part of the Requena Province, Alto Tapiche represents one of the most isolated administrative units in the region, where infrastructure development remains limited and transportation depends heavily on river networks. For those seeking to access postal services or communicate with residents in this remote Amazon district, understanding its geographical context and administrative structure is essential for locating specific communities within Alto Tapiche's territory.
