Cabo Blanco Absolute Reserve

Located in the most southern point of the Nicoya Peninsula, the Cabo Blanco Absolute Reserve covers 1172 hectares of pristine tropical dry forest, famous for its rich biological ecosystems, which consist of unique plant and animal species. Anteaters,
 Coatis, Ocelots, Sloths, Spider Monkeys, Howler Monkeys, and a variety of Black Monkeys and Snakes the immense diversity of Cabo Blanco call home. In this site more than 150 species of trees make the animal habitats.
The Cabo Blanco forest mainly consists of secondary forests, however, a small portion of primary forest exists in the highest part of the reserve. Walk through Cabo Blanco, sometimes it becomes very difficult especially in the higher parts of the interior of the park, many hikers will take the most of this challenge, but we also find trails ideal for anyone, regardless of their status physics.
Swedish The trail runs 4.5 miles across the reserve from north to south, eventually reaching a secluded white sand beach with clean water to fill their bottles and shower cooling of the walk. Definitely a very exhausting walk.
Cape Blanco was the first national park in Costa Rica and is one of the most beautiful. Established in 1963 by a pair of Swedish immigrants, the establishment of the park indicated a move by the authorities to a strict conservation ethic as opposed to the previous development strategy in all costs. The book is the result of the efforts of private landowners and conservationists interested in the overdevelopment of the Nicoya Peninsula who came together to lobby the government for the creation of a national park. After Cabo Blanco, successive administrations realized the importance of the park system, and the value of ecotourism.
The park is just south of Montezuma and Malpais, covering the rest of the peninsula and the island of Cape Blanco on the south coast. The park is not accessible from the west of the town of Malpais beach. Visitors must use the road that runs west of Montezuma and finally through Cabuya en route to the park entrance. A ranger station provides information on biodiversity and trails of the reserve. Visitors should arrive early hours to have enough time to explore.
