Oxapampa is the capital of Oxapampa District and Oxapampa Province in Peru in the eastern part of the Pasco Region.[1] Oxapampa belongs to the natural region known as Selva Alta or high jungle. 80 kilometres (50 mi) northward down the valley of the Huancabamba River is the settlement of Pozuzo (altitude 800 m).[2] The most important agricultural pursuits in the region are raising cattle and growing coffee.[citation needed]

Oxapampa was founded in 1891 by settlers of Austrian and Germanic origin from Pozuzo. The town and the region retains a Germanic flavor in its Tyrolean architecture and celebrates its origins in public celebrations. Oxapampa, due to its mild climate and scenic surroundings, has become a tourist destination since access was improved by highway construction beginning in the 1980s.
