The primary forest at sunset is entirely different from the experience at dawn or even night. Costa Rica currently houses 5% of the world’s biodiversity, and this makes for a rich observation of species in forest reserves.
If, for instance, we look at the butterfly population, we will find that over 2000 species are diurnal and 4500 are nocturnal. That is almost twice as many! That is the case with amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and some exotic flower species, which bloom only at night.
Mistico Park reserve offers visitors the Mistico Twilight tour to watch the forest at sunset and part of the night. The tour starts in our trails and includes crossing hanging bridges.
