Put on your hiking boots to explore the tropical forest and your guide will point out fascinating plants and wildlife. A highlight of this hike is seeing and hearing the howler monkeys frolicking up in the trees above. |

Enjoy a brief but delightful boat trip into the mangroves to get a taste of the bird life that live within. Travel up the small and intimate Ulpiano estuary for a chance to see a variety of birdlife feeding at this entrance of several fresh water streams - this allows for a greater variance in fish. Everybody loves more menu options, even the birds of Manglares Churute. |
