Visiting the Rainforest
Pure Nature in Piedras Blancas National Park
In southern Costa Rica, on the edge of the Golfo Dulce, lies a true jewel for nature lovers: the Rainforest of the Austrians, part of the Piedras Blancas National Park. This area is one of the last original tropical lowland rainforests in Central America – and, thanks to its special geographical location and eventful geological history, is one of the most biodiverse regions on our planet. Anyone enthusiastic about nature, biodiversity, and ecosystems will find this an ideal place to marvel, discover, and immerse themselves. Depending on your personal preferences, there are various options for your stay.
The Esquinas Rainforest Lodge offers cozy accommodations with direct access to the rainforest – perfect for day trips and wildlife viewing.
You can get even closer at the La Gamba Tropical Station, a biological research station that is also open to guests interested in nature. Here, you can experience rainforest life firsthand – with hikes, bird watching, and exciting insights into tropical biodiversity.
If you want to get to know Costa Rica’s nature even more intensively, you can take guided tours with Naturreisen – accompanied by biologists from the La Gamba Tropical Station, who share their passion and knowledge directly on-site.
