Corcovado National Park
Introduction
Corcovado National Park is the backpacking experience of a lifetime.
It encompasses the only remaining old growth wet forests on the Pacific coast of Central America, and 13 major ecosystems including lowland rain forest, highland cloud
forest, jolillo palm forest, and mangrove swamps, as well as costal marine and beach habitats.
There is a good chance of spotting some of Costa Rica's
shyest and most endangered inhabitants here; Baird's Tapirs, Jaguars, Scarlet Macaws, Harpy Eagles, Red-backed squirrel monkeys and White-lipped Peccaries. It is wet, remote and rugged, but the
trails are relatively good, and the camping areas near the ranger stations are grassy and well drained.
