DANAUS ECOCENTER WALK TO OBSERVE THE NATURE

Within the small ecological reserve, which regenerated naturally, thanks to the efforts of a group of people concerned about 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.

 In it we will find a Botanical Garden with more than 600 species of plants, a butterfly garden with more than 40 species, there are areas destined to frog reproduction in a natural way, some wetland and areas dedicated to the exhibition of medicinal plants. 

Besides these places, all the rest of the areas are excellent points of view of re growing wildlife. Frogs, serpents, turtles, caimans, monkeys, sloth and birds are usually seen around the place.
