Corcovado National Park
Corcovado National Park is an undeniably
beautiful place, considered to be one of the most important natural
preserves in the Americas, this virgin rain forest park invites superlatives
from all who visit. At least thirteen distinct vegetation types in close
proximity, including mangroves, palm swamps and bloodweed forest make
Corcovado a botanist's dream. Jaguars, giant anteaters, hundreds of
white-lipped peccaries, tapers, and a host of rare rain forest animals
inhabit the vast reaches surrounding the crocodile-filled lagoon at
the park's center. The captivating visual beauty of its forest and of
its coastline, with miles of uninhabited beaches and roaring cascades,
draws visitors from all over the world.
Corcovado National Park has been called "the most biologically intense
place on Earth" by National Geographic.
