The Corcovado Trek
The venturers have arrived! We rounded them up, got them introduced to Field Base, & moved them through their swimming tests. Looks like a great group of young-ins and am uber-excited to get things underway. I decided a proper description of the hike is in order so have pasted the fluffy Raleigh version below:
CORCOVADO TREK: This trek starts in the stunning montane La Amistad National Park, the largest National Park in Costa Rica and a UNESCO World Heritage site. It then passes through beautiful mountain scenery, towering cloud forest, waterfalls and hot springs. The group will then cross the Coto Brus valley to the Fila Costena – a chain of mountains that run parallel to the sea. Once they are out of the mountains the group will finish the trek by crossing the famous Corcovado National Park that straddles the Osa Peninsula, walking through the best preserved tropical rainforest in Central America. The group will have a chance to see monkeys and Tapirs before they walk alongside the Pacific Ocean for three days to meet the bus home.
