I love your videos. I've been there many times too. I can't wait for your next video. I hope you go to La Zona de Los Santos.....my favourite 😍.

[@BikeHikeBotany]

Thanks for watching. 😁 Yes I'd like to go to that area but I need to save up for that🤣. I've been mainly doing videos around here in Jacó for the last while because its easier to get to and I don't need to incur costs for transportation or lodgings. But someday I'll get out there!🙂

I live in the southern City of Pérez zeledon I have always wanted to make that hike. I love nature and I love walking, I seriously dont know why I havent go to Corcovado since i have the time. Bunch of friends had showed me amaizing videos of Corcovado I know the relevancy of this place I seriously cant explain why havent go but your videos are the last push I needed, I would visit this place.. My family had quite large área of land some parts at some point were used to farm pineapple around 15 years ago now im reforesting a really vast área dozens of km2 I work every day to make this place magic again and gladly I start seeing more animals.. I dont like money, nature cures me is always been like that, it gives me peace Thanks a lot for your video...

[@BikeHikeBotany]

That makes me so happy to hear that my video is encouraging you to make the trip to Corcovado. I waited 16 years to go.... I should have gone long ago. Just do it. It is soooooo worth it. Nature is also my peaceful place. Thanks for tuning in. ❤️ Pura vida

[@BikeHikeBotany]

Thanks for watching Mike!! The wildlife was spectacular !! Something a bit different than my usual hikes! haha. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for stoping by! Pura Vida.

Excellent videos! I visited Corcovado in 1995 and saw much of the same flora and fauna featured here. The facilities at Sirena appear much improved since my trip and possibly expanded since it looked a bit bigger than I remember. Also I dont remember seeing any interpretive signs and I dont think there were seven marked trails, I think some of those must have been created since I was there. Back then I was able to do my own autonomous trip, basically just showing up and winging it.I did an out and back from Carate and fortunately found hiking partners to accompany me both ways. On the way into Sirena we encountered a high tide that made the crossing of the Rio Claro quite the adventure. We arrived at Sirena right at dusk and as soon as we stepped under the corrugated metal roof an intense downpour commenced and the Ranger told us that the hammerhead sharks swim upstream to hunt during high tide. I'm glad I didnt know that when we were crossing the shoulder deep river while we were carrying our packs over our heads. While I was there several students from various countries were doing their Masters thesis' in their respective fields. on my second night at Sirena they had set up several large white canvasses with flood lights shining through and were observing all the different insects that were attracted to them. there were hundreds of bugs of different shapes, colors and sizes all flitting about and landing on the canvasses.

[@BikeHikeBotany]

Wow. Sounds like it was an incredible experience. I moved to Costa Rica in 2006 and it was much different then than it is today so I can only imagine back in 1995!!! Thanks so much for sharing your experience and for watching my video. Pura vida

[@x29iy]

@@BikeHikeBotany In those days the whole Ecotourism thing was getting just getting started and I dont think there were any ziplines or resort style hotels in the whole country. they also wanted to replace cattle ranching with iguana farming.

[@BikeHikeBotany]

Iguana farming lol

[@JoeCoachTV]

Wow, the filming and editing are amazing. beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing this video!👍45

[@TranquiloBayPanama]

That hike looked like a blast, your hiking videos are great, thank you. You should try Isla Bastimentos National Marine Park in Bocas del Toro, Panama. You won't see another hiker along the way, incredible flora and fauna.

[@BikeHikeBotany]

Hello. Thanks for watching . Bastimentos is great. I went there back in 2004. I haven't left CR in years so not sure when I will get back there, but I loved it. 🙌🏾 Pura Vida friend

[@TranquiloBayPanama]

@@BikeHikeBotany In 2004, this was the Wild West, but it hasn't changed much. Thanks for all the great content. Let us know if you ever make it this way again. Tranquilo!

[@BikeHikeBotany]

@@TranquiloBayPanama yes! For sure! Panama was the first country I ever visited and made me want to move to Central America. I have great memories from there! You guys are in Bastimentos? Definitely will contact you if I go back 😁🙌🏾 Pura Vida🌴✌️

[@TranquiloBayPanama]

@@BikeHikeBotany Yes, we are on the Southern Peninsula of Isla Bastimentos adjoining the National Park. We would love to have you if you make it back this way. We've been here for 22 years now, we love it.

@@TranquiloBayPanama I may just take you up on that 🤣🙌🏾 ✌️

[@gregscott7304]

Great video! How does one start a trip like this?

[@BikeHikeBotany]

I went with a local group that does hikes for Costa Ricans but you can hire a guide . Can you send me an email to [e-mail] please so that I can send you more detailed info! 😁 Pura Vida. Thanks for watching

[@PepperGuru]

Very nice :)

[@BikeHikeBotany]

Thank you and thanks for watching pura vida ❤️

[@massimonotaro607]

I'm struggling to find out on how to book this..I'm going to Costarica in 5 week's. I think I left it to late

[@BikeHikeBotany]

It's probably possible still. I recommend you look up some hiking groups on facebook to see if there are any guides doing tours there right now. We had a lot of rain and flooding in Costa Rica this month so you will have to see how the cconditions are. good luck

I spent several days in Corcovado about 25 years. Magical place. Glad it hasn't been too spoiled by tourism. Thank you for sharing and those pinnipartitas were amazing. And never heard of adelonema wendlandii until now.

It sure is a wonderfully wild place. I'm glad they are strict with protecting the park. Thanks for watching. Much appreciated. Pura Vida 👍
