Begin your adventure with a convenient pickup from your accommodation in Drake Bay. From there, enjoy a scenic 4x4 drive to Corcovado Next Door, a private reserve located in the rural community of Los Planes, right next to the boundary of Corcovado National Park.

Embark on a peaceful hike through one of the few remaining primary forests in the region — a lush ecosystem bursting with life. Along the trails, find animal tracks and learn how to identify signs of wildlife such as tapirs, peccaries, or pumas, as well as the diverse plant species that make this area so special.

The terrain is mostly flat, ideal for families or anyone seeking a relaxed and authentic rainforest experience. Midway through the hike, enjoy a traditional Costa Rican lunch prepared by locals, surrounded by pristine nature.
