An Immersive Experience
This hike will take you along uncharted trails and through a pristine forest, ensuring an immersive and unrivalled experience. You will be able to observe numerous species of high-altitude birds, such as the majestic quetzal, and walk in the habitat of various mammals that inhabit our forests, such as the cougar, the danta and the bush goat, among others, and then finish at the viewpoint of Costa Rica’s only natural color lagoon. A lagoon formed by waters of volcanic origin that stains with wonderful colors as it mixes with other tributaries. A place few people know.

Our abundant vegetation will dazzle you, and with any luck, you will have the opportunity to walk among the clouds. All this, along with the benefits of physical activity that a mountain hike provides, will make your visit an unforgettable experience.

This walk is for people used to playing sports for several hours. Intermediate level
