This two-day adventure offers an intimate encounter with the raw beauty of the Osa Peninsula and Corcovado National Park, where nature's wonders unfold in an unspoiled paradise.
Immersive Experience:

Here, the trails come alive with the vibrant hues and calls of exotic birds, mysterious reptiles, and intriguing amphibians, offering a feast for your senses both day and night.
Journey through Virgin Forests:
On the second day, as the morning sun gently awakens the world, join the chorus of howler monkeys and a multitude of birds on your trek to Los Patos station. This path winds through virgin forests, boasting centenarian trees, hidden waterfalls, and an array of wildlife, promising sights and sounds that echo the essence of the wilderness.
Adventure and Comfort:
This excursion blends the thrill of adventure with the comforts of modern travel. Enjoy a night of glamping under the stars in a private room, with some meals included to savor the local flavors. A bilingual guide accompanies you, ensuring a seamless and enriching experience.
