Cerro Tortuguero trek

Cerro Tortuguero Trek by Will Gray

Overview

Just a short taxi ride up river from the village is the drop off point for this trek on what can be a slippery and muddy trail. Don the boots and you will have fun slip sliding up this small hill to two fantastic lookout points. Trails are easy to follow but watch out for spiders and keep your ears and eyes pealed for resident monkeys and possibly some birdlife. Many guides in town will accompany you on this often-muddy adventure, including Ernesto Tours
