Best Hikes to Suspension Bridge Over the Sarapiquí River (Refugio de Vida Silvestre La Tirimbina)
Tips
The suspension bridge over the Sarapiqui is 262 meters long and 22 meters high, according to information on the Internet. But regardless of the impressive figures, it is a breathtaking experience to walk across this bridge and across the river. The bridge disappears into the dense rainforest on the other side of the river (which can also be explored). Take your time crossing it; in the rapids and on the banks you can watch various herons hunting, in the branches of the jungle giants you might spot prehistoric iguanas or basilisks with their headdresses or maybe even a family of monkeys doing gymnastics.
