Accompanied by a knowledgeable local guide, we’ll hike through the forest while learning about its fascinating ecosystem, native plants, trees, birds, wildlife, and the important role this protected environment plays in the Coffee Region. Listen carefully for the powerful calls of the howler monkeys echoing through the forest as we search for opportunities to observe them among the treetops. Along the way, we’ll also visit a beautiful waterfall of approximately 20 meters, where you can slow down, enjoy the sounds of flowing water, and connect with the peaceful surroundings. As these are wild animals in their natural habitat, sightings cannot be guaranteed—making every encounter a truly special moment. 3 hrs Admission included
