The Amapá National Forest covers an area of 459,867 hectares and is located in the the Guiana Shield region, in the center of the State of Amapá and covers part of the three municipalities of Ferreira Gomes, Pracuúba and Amapá. This conservation unit was created in 1989 to enable the sustainable exploitation of wood, as well as to protect the biodiversity and the continuity of low impact activities carried out by indigenous populations that already inhabited the area.
