The Estacion Biologica El Refugio (14'45 S, 61' 00 W) is a 50,000 ha reserve adjacent to and partially overlapping the Parque Nacional Noel Kempff Mercado in northeastern Bolivia. El Refugio is located in a climatic and biogeographic transition zone between the moist Amazonian forests and dry forests and grasslands characteristic of the Cerrado and Chaco. There is relatively easy access to many different habitat types from the main camp, located along the banks of the Río Paraguá. El Refugio is a small station capable of housing a maximum of eight scientists at a time. To learn more about El Refugio and research possibilities at the site, please visit the links below.
