Overview

This 2.5-hour night walking tour takes place in the natural rainforest at the base of Arenal Volcano near La Fortuna. The walk happens on the trails of Mirador El Silencio, guided by a naturalist who explains the region’s volcanic geology, local climate, and ecosystem. As darkness falls, participants may see a variety of nocturnal wildlife including frogs like the hourglass, Blue Jeans, and red-eyed frog, along with insects, reptiles, and snakes such as coral and velvet. The guide may also point out mammals like sloths, possums, anteaters, coatis, armadillos, howler and spider monkeys. Walks vary each night because animals live freely in this natural environment.
