The Field Station

Situated on the Northern boundary of the Iwokrama Forest on the banks for the mighty Essequibo river lies The Iwokrama Field Station, this is the operational hub of the centre and whilst it is remote it has all that you could possibly need for a comfortable stay in the forest.

The Fred Allicock Training Centre is a 9,000 sq. ft., octagonal 2-storeyed building with two scientific labs, a business centre with internet access, a small store, a modest but expanding reference library, and a visitor lounge and bar. The building also houses administrative offices and offers event facilities like training and other meeting spaces.

Satellite Camps

More adventurous groups can take advantage of the six satellite camps that are scattered throughout the Forest. Turtle Mountain Camp is a very modern facility, opened in April 2003, and has wooden open-air sleeping huts, a dining hut, and flush toilets. The other camps are open-sided buildings with zinc roofs, separate cooking areas and pit latrines, and are all close to a permanent waterway. Visitors to satellite camps sleep in hammocks with specially designed mosquito nets.
