Embark on an unforgettable journey through the northern mountains of Corcovado at La Tarde, where you’ll explore a rich, mature primary forest teeming with life. 🌳

This adventure begins at a rural tourism project nestled right along the edge of the Corcovado national park. It's a perfect spot for birdwatching, as well as spotting reptiles and amphibians in their natural habitat. As you wander through the lush trails, you'll encounter the area's incredible biodiversity and breathtaking landscapes. Along the way, enjoy a traditional Costa Rican meal, all while watching dozens of vibrant tropical birds fluttering around the restaurant. You’ll have time to relax, explore, and take in the sights, including one of the most magnificent fig trees in the Osa Peninsula.

Accompanied by the warmth of the morning sun and the distant calls of howler monkeys, you’ll immerse yourself in the sounds of the wild. After marveling at the untouched virgin forests and centuries-old trees, while listening to the chorus of tropical birds, you’ll have explored one of the most unique and stunning spots in the region.
