Cómo visitar Corcovado sin guía
Visitar este Parque Nacional sin guía no es recomendado para personas sin conocimiento de navegación con brújula/GPS. Varios visitantes se han perdido en los senderos debido a falta de preparación/experiencia. Además, al ser selva virgen con la mayor concentración de biodiversidad en el planeta, es de suma importancia comportarse de manera responsable durante la visita (los guías ayudan a controlar esto).
Por otro lado, al visitar con guía usted está apoyando la economía local y la conservación. ´
Nosotros decidimos ir sin guía porque preferimos caminar a nuestro propio ritmo y estructurar las caminatas a nuestro parecer. Queda a criterio y consciencia de cada visitante la decisión de llevar, o no llevar, guía.
Cómo todo lo referente a instituciones públicas en Costa Rica, el procedimiento es un enigma y requiere de múltiples llamadas y correos para desenredar toda la información. Una tragedia burocrática. Por esta razón, hicimos este video explicativo para esclarecer el asunto.
Si usted también piensa visitar sin guía, favor acatar todas las indicaciones del guardaparques:
NO ALIMENTAR A LOS ANIMALES
NO llevar comida
NO ingresar con plásticos de un solo uso
SI LLEVAR brújula+mapa y botella de agua reutilizable
Dejar solo huellas, y llevarse solo fotos
Recuerden; en Drake les será casi imposible conseguir lancha sin guía. Mejor resolver eso DE PREVIO, contactando a las operadoras con anticipación.
