Costa Rica National Parks Guide
Roughly 20% of Costa Rica's territory is constituted as National Park or Reserves, including two parks declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO. This means most National Parks and Reserves are easily accessible from anywhere in the country, making Costa Rica an ideal destination if you want to be surrounded by natural settings. Costa Rica’s National System of Conservation Areas include majestic volcanoes, Pacific and Caribbean beaches, tropical dry, wet, and rain forests, as well as jungle landscapes, all without the need for traveling long distances. There are 29 national parks in Costa Rica, each protecting numerous species of flora and fauna.
