The latest season of Stranger Things has already arrived, but have you felt that there is still more of the unknown left to explore? Or have you asked yourself Is there another episode of Stranger Things? Don’t wait for another season to be released—stop being a spectator and become the protagonist.
If you are looking for the “Upside Down” (an alternate dimension), but instead of finding Demogorgons, Demobats, or Vecna, you want to encounter species that seem to come from another world, there is a place where reality surpasses fiction: Manu National Park. The next great episode of your life is waiting for you deep in the Peruvian Amazon.
From the Mysterious Town of Hawkins to the Magical Jungles of Manu
In Stranger Things, we see Eleven, Mike, Will, Dustin, Lucas, and Max venture into misty forests, discover astonishing creatures, and face beings from another world. And while many wonder if there is another episode of Stranger Things, in Manu National Park you will have the opportunity to experience a setting that feels out of this world—yet it is completely real. Giant trees that transcend time, animals that appear when you least expect them, sounds you won’t hear anywhere else, and a morning mist that accompanies you each day. To feel this, you don’t need to go to the Upside Down; you just need to venture deep into Manu. But unlike Stranger Things, here you won’t find supernatural dangers—only a profound connection with nature.
The Ultimate Adventure: Manu Reserved Zone (6 Days)
If you enjoy a marathon filled with mysterious settings, new characters, and unanswered questions in every episode, this plan is for you. Our 6-day Manu Reserved Zone itinerary is perfect for that experience. Your story and season are divided into 6 episodes, where each episode is a full day of new experiences and mysteries.
Episode One: The Beginning of the Journey
Departing from Cusco, you will pass through the Chullpas of Ninamarca until you reach the Cloud Forest—a dramatic change of scenery that will make you wonder, “Am I still in Peru?”
Episode Two: New Settings
On this day you won’t encounter a Demogorgon, but you will find a colorful setting where hundreds of birds fly freely across the sky. You will also be able to relax in the Shintuya Hot Springs while surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. At night, you will embark on a night walk—will you find something similar to a Demogorgon?
Episode Three: Close Encounters
The journey continues along the Alto Madre de Dios River, where wild animals such as otters may appear along the way. You will venture into one of the most biodiverse areas on the planet via the Manu River. It is not uncommon to find white caimans in this area, and if you are very lucky, you may spot a jaguar. On this day, the Matsiguenka Lodge awaits you. Will you manage to see a jaguar today?
Episode Four: The Deep Immersion
Vast rivers, mirror-like lakes, flora and fauna at every step, and the magnificent Macaw and Parrot Clay Lick are just a glimpse of what you will encounter. But don’t let your guard down! If you don’t pay attention, you could miss incredible scenes.
Episode Five: The Colors of Manu
This episode begins with a delicious breakfast at the Matsiguenka Lodge, an accommodation managed by Indigenous communities. Although they do not fight Vecna, they do confront illegal mining and logging to protect their territories and the Amazon. During your journey in search of the jaguar, you may also encounter frogs, snakes, birds, sloths, otters, and more at every step.
Episode Six: The Return
After enjoying a unique adventure navigating vast rivers, hiking in search of endemic species, and savoring outstanding cuisine, this day is marked by a calm and relaxed return to the imperial city of Cusco. Will you want to come back?
