Aprox duration 2hImmerse yourself in the mysterious night of Monteverde with the Night Walk with Kinkajou tour. This walk invites you to explore the forest at its most magical time, when numerous creatures come out under the starlight. Accompanied by professional guides, you'll have the opportunity to observe fascinating species such as sloths, armadillos, porcupines, opossums, coatis, olingos, and, of course, the elusive kinkajous, known locally as martillas.
The kinkajou, with its flexible body and prehensile tail, plays a crucial role in seed dispersal and maintaining the forest's biodiversity. These nocturnal mammals primarily feed on fruits, but also on nectar and occasionally small vertebrates, contributing to pollination and the ecological balance of the habitat.
The walk also offers a glimpse into the diversity of insects, birds, amphibians, and reptiles that enrich this unique ecosystem.
