The Amarakaeri Communal Reserve (Reserva Comunal Amarakaeri) is a protected area in Peru located in the Madre de Dios Region, Manú Province. It protects parts of the Southwest Amazon moist forests and Peruvian Yungas ecoregions.[1]

Located in the reserve is the geomorphological made "Harakbut Face" that resembles a man's face. It is known by the native Harakbut tribesmen as the Rostro, which means face in their native language.[2]
