CICRA Forms and Registration

We’d like to welcome you to our Los Amigos Biological Station, known as CICRA to researchers and friends. Nestled in the southwestern Amazon just beyond the foothills of the Andes mountains, CICRA is an excellent place to study biodiversity and forest composition, land use change, and lowland tropical ecosystems, as well as discover new species! It’s also an awe-inspiring place that has served as a muse for scores of artists and scientific tourists.

If you would like to visit CICRA and know the dates you will be with us, please register using the registration form on this page. If you want more information about preparing for your stay at Los Amigos and getting to the station, check out our CICRA forms and information section below. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you’ll find Los Amigos and CICRA maps of our biological station trails and those at our satellite sites, our conservation concession boundaries, and other data that will help you refine your research proposal.
