Trek Costa Rica
Explore the diverse landscape that Costa Rica has to offer in this remote and untouched area waiting to be explored...
Home to five per cent of the planet's biodiversity, with everything from palm tree-lined tropical beaches to smoking volcanoes, cloud forest and mangrove, our charity trek in Costa Rica will take us through coffee plantations and oak forests deep into the dense tropical rainforest.
Serenaded by howler monkeys and exotic bird calls you'll experience everything Costa Rica has to offer before finishing on a beautiful tropical beach.
