Costa Rica is famous for its state protected areas, but it also has a large expanse of privately owned forests. In fact, 57% of the earth’s territory is covered by forest, and 32% of that percentage belongs to private owners. Many of these places have developed conservation and sustainable tourism projects, giving you the opportunity to get into nature while contributing to the protection of biodiversity.

In addition to immersing you in wildlife and reforestation projects, these private spaces offer experiences as diverse as coffee or chocolate tours, and visits to animal shelters, where you can learn about rehabilitation and conservation programs for species. Each visit not only brings you closer to Costa Rica’s natural and cultural beauty, but also directly supports the sustainability initiatives that make this country a unique destination for adventure and conservation lovers.
