This area is ideal for viewing thousands of rainforest flora and fauna species, with the
Caribbean ocean in the background.
The new park is bordered by the La Amistad Internacional Park, a world heritage site, which is part of the Mesoamerica Biological Corridor.
Those that come to Veragua will find a natural adventure. All guides, who are Costa Rican, will take people on a long path just short of a mile, of which 80% is wheel chair accessible.
Along the path, a snake sanctuary (with fer-de-lance and boa snakes), a butterfly garden (with morpho and owl butterflies), an open-air garden with hummingbirds, a couple of waterfalls, and a zipline over the canopy heighten the ecological experience.
The Veragua project will offer not only fun things, but also generations of knowledge to guests. That’s why a fundamental aspect of this site is a scientific station right in the middle of the forest and attractions.
The research center is open to the public. In fact, the laboratory is surrounded by see-though glass so that the tourists can observe how the research is done. In addition, the microscopes have video cameras installed, which transmits the picture “live” on plasma screens, exactly what the scientists are viewing.
