Quepos, Costa Rica

2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

Many local landowners in the surrounding area have converted their properties into palm plantations. Our reserve is one of the few that kept its original rainforest, protected by the same family for generations. This makes the night walk truly authentic, with real wildlife in a natural ecosystem guided by a certified ICT naturalist.

Meeting and pickup

Meeting point

Meet at the roadside next to the Quepos cemetery on the Quepos → Pueblo Anita road. This is the area with the strongest phone signal. Your guide will be waiting there on an ATV. Once you arrive, follow the guide in your own vehicle to Finca Salamandra, where the night walk begins.

End point
This activity ends back at the meeting point.

What to expect

After meeting your guide near the Quepos cemetery, you will follow them in your own vehicle to a private rainforest reserve hidden inside palm plantations. Upon arrival at the property, your certified naturalist guide will provide safety instructions and a quick orientation.

As the sun sets, you will begin a guided walk through the forest using headlamps to spot nocturnal wildlife. The trail is flat and the walk lasts approximately 1.5 to 2 hours. Along the way, your guide will help you identify frogs, insects, sleeping birds, reptiles, and other creatures that become active at night.

You’ll learn about nocturnal behavior, natural camouflage, and the importance of rainforest conservation. The experience ends back at the property, where you’ll return your boots and can ask final questions before driving out.
