Lots of beautiful trails. Find the hummingbird tree, if you can. Lots of birds, insects and baramundi. Donations accepted instead of payment, which goes to help the refuge.

You cant really see a lot of animals in this reserve... There were just some insects, humming birds etc.. Definitely not worth it for $20USD per person...
We had several other wildlife hikes in CR that were great, so perhaps this one suffered somewhat by comparison. We didn't see much except for insects (its was quite windy that night) & didn't cover much distance. Our guide, Jonathan, did seem to be quite knowledgeable. After reading the other reviews & thinking back on our experience, I would recommend...

salvatore park has many options. we did the walking bridges (since we did the canopy in arenal ). I thought t was less exciting than I expected. I was hoping for adventurous bridges. allthough the view in the forest id great.

Was greatly interested in organic farming so I took the Finca organic farm tour. The knowledge I got from this was more than I could handle. very informative and helpful.
What a wild and fun adventure. Something you cannot do just anywhere, that is for sure. The guys were very sensitive to our being comfortable and for our safety.
The Finca Ecologica was close to our hotel, so we walked there one morning for a morning hike. When we arrived at 9, the gentleman at the information desk told us there was only one other person on the trail, so the chances of seeing wildlife was good.
Our admission ticket is good for the entire day, so you can...

The Ecological Sanctuary is a privately owned reserve, and much of it was formerly banana and coffee plantation, and other parts of it are secondary forest. I don't think there is any primary forest, so it's not at all like, say, the big reserves. We pulled into the parking lot and a woman explained - in Spanish - about all...
