Our small family of on-site staff are always available to point you to our huge network of free hiking trails. You can also try your hand at fishing, snorkeling, kayaking, or surfing, just a stones’ throw away from your cabin. Explore Corcovado and it’s surroundings in a genuine off-the-beaten track experience.

Experience Biodiversity

Jungla del Jaguar is the only affordable lodge that shares it’s jungle with Corcovado- the little Amazon of Costa Rica. Even just sipping a cocktail on our balcony bar, you could spot scarlet macaws, 3 different species of monkeys, coatis, tayra, or even a tapir. Our property is also a botanists’ dream- teeming with exotic fruits, medicinal plants and native flowers.

Our free jungle trails offer even more wildlife spotting opportunities including countless bird, reptile, and insect species. You could even spot a group of peccaries, anteaters, or one of our elusive big cats.

Student groups and researchers are welcome at Jungla del Jaguar. Contact us for information about volunteering and group packages.​
