Rancho La Merced Wildlife Refuge presents a series of trails for hiking through primary rainforest, secondary growth and open land to give you the opportunity to observe the protected flora and fauna.
Experience the behavior of insects, birds, mammals and reptiles in their natural habitat, and observe the extensive variety of tropical plants. Enjoy the tranquil environment of the beautiful nature sanctuary by hiking along the banks of the Morete River and taking a short tour of the mangrove estuary at the mouth of the river.
Part of the trails are located on the hill sides of the reserve where you can observe the Morete River basin, the tropical rain forest, and the habitat near the river. This is an excellent hike for wildlife observation as there is a great deal of open space and gallery forest. The hike covers areas where the howler monkeys are heard always in the mornings.
