The Experience

Before You Go

Arrive early for cooler conditions

Start in the morning to avoid midday heat on exposed platforms and catch the best bird activity on the trails.

Wear closed‑toe shoes

Grippy shoes protect toes on rope elements and uneven trails; sandals are not recommended.

Hydrate before and during

Bring a reusable water bottle — the course can feel hotter than ground level and there are limited shade breaks.

Know the limits

Maximum single‑user weight is 280 lb (127 kg) and minimum age is 7; disclose spinal or cardiovascular issues when booking.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Small mountain viewpoint with Gulf of Nicoya vistas a short walk from the labyrinth
  • Early‑morning birding loop where parrots and trogons are often heard before the crowds arrive

Wildlife

  • Howler monkey
  • Parrots and parakeets (including local macaw activity)

Conservation Note

The park operates on fragmented dry‑forest habitat; visitors are encouraged to stick to trails, avoid single‑use plastics and support local guides to minimize impact.

Puntarenas’ coastal corridor evolved from agricultural and fishing roots into a tourism zone in the late 20th century; parks like Vista Golfo repurposed former ranchland into outdoor recreation.
