Corcovado National Park

Sirena

Sirena is considered the heart of Corcovado and the largest interior ranger station. It is also the most rustic. Because of its history and location, Sirena biological Station in Corcovado National Park is a keystone for science, education and ecotourism in the region.

Sirena is an hour and fifteen minute boat ride in a skiff. The coast line is scenic beyond belief. This guided tour leaves at 6:00 a.m. and does not return until mid afternoon. Each hiker will carry his lunch and snacks.  There will be cold drinks at the end of the hike.  Avid naturalists accustomed  to hiking will enjoy seeing this remote station in Corcovado National Park .  This trip is not recommended for the faint of heart.
The extraordinary diversity and concentration of wildlife in the Corcovado Basin, which contains Sirena Ranger Station, means that spectacular wildlife viewing opportunities are liable to present themselves at virtually any time at nearly any part of any trail.  None of the animals are hunted, so they do not have much fear of human beings.  As a result, tapirs often cool off in nearby mud holes, and herds of peccaries frequently roam with a few hundred meters of the ranger station itself.   This tour requires a minimum of four people.
