Costa Rica Atlantic Trekking Tour - Our Corinto River Costa Rica Trekking Tour begins at the main building of our Atlantic park. Board the Tram, which will carry us to Tower 12. Along the way, you’ll become educated on how to safely explore real primary rainforest, and then you’ll begin your Costa Rica trekking tour hike down to the Corinto River.
After a rest on the riverbank and a well-deserved picnic-style lunch, you’ll hike back to Tower 12. This time you’ll walk along the trail that separates the Rainforest Aerial Tram’s reserve from Braulio Carrillo National Park.
Back at our main facilities, you can take a shower and take off all the mud, leaves and branches you might have collected during your hike.
Departure for San José is at 4 pm, and you’ll get back to your hotel around 5:30 pm.
