Osa Peninsula

Walking in Corcovado National Park, located on Costa Rica’s remote Osa Peninsula, presents a demanding yet profoundly rewarding experience for nature enthusiasts. The challenges are significant: especially the oppressive humidity, often exceeding 90%, and the rugged terrain crisscrossed by rivers. This park, which holds 2.5% of the world’s biodiversity in just 424 square kilometers, offers intimate glimpses of rare wildlife, including Baird’s tapirs, scarlet macaws, and squirrel monkeys swinging overhead. The dense primary rainforest teems with life, and the sense of awe in standing amidst one of the planet's last untouched ecosystems is unforgettable, making every blister and bead of sweat a worthy price for such raw natural splendor.
