Costa Rica's Corcovado National Park General Info

Information
The park has three entry points: La Leona, on the southeast corner near Carate; Los Patos, on the northern perimeter; and San Pedrillo, at the northwest corner, 18 km south of Drake Bay.

You can hike or fly into the natioanl park headquarters at Sirena, a large research station set back from the beach, midway between La Leona and San Pedrillo (it has an airstrip). There's also a remote ranger station at Los Planes, on the northern border midway between San Pedrillo and Los Patos. All are linked by trails.

Entrance costs $6 and is good for the duration of your stay.

The national park is administered through the Osa Conservation Area headquarters in Puerto Jiménez.
