conservation of our environment and education of our children and adults of the outlying areas, is how this wonderful Project
was born and cooperated with the tourist development of the town of La Fortuna.

are areas destined to frog reproduction in a natural way, some wetland and areas dedicated to the exhibition of medicinal
plants.

monkeys, sloth and birds are usually seen around the place.
