      Thanks for watching. I hope to visit this place again soon. As for why I use the term "jungle", rainforest is often referred to jungle. According to A-Z-ANIMALS.COM "A jungle is a type of dense rainforest and the term can refer to any type of tropical forest with thick vegetation, including rainforests. Today, a jungle means either an undeveloped tropical forest with impenetrable vegetation, the bottom half of a rainforest, or the outer edges of one." ✌️Pura vida

      @BikeHikeBotany  Před 6 měsíci

      I went with a local group, los Coyotes, that I found on a local facebook hiking group. This tour organizer offer guided hikes mainly for locals. There are other tour operators in Costa Rica that offer guided tours for tourists. If you would like some help planning a trip there, you can write me at bikehikebotany@gmail.com and I would be happy to help.
