Our 1.5km Trail offers one of the best opportunities to observe sloths in their natural habitat.
During this journey, we’ll be witnessing various animals in their natural state, and that’s why our guide will be responsible for showing us the best way to enjoy them without causing stress or disruption to their daily lives.
Both two- and three-toed sloths are now common on our property, which we’ve reforested and protected for many years. This is the fruit we want to share with you—a haven for sloths in the heart of Fortuna de San Carlos.
Our guide will share impressive details about these animals, concluding the tour with a small tasting of artisanal sugarcane juice and a traditional tortilla-making class with Doña Elith. Not to mention, a visit to her medicinal plant garden.
Undoubtedly, it’s a complete experience of nature and culture in one place.
