DÚRIKA: EcoAldea Integral Autosuficiente Protecting 8500 hectares of tropical cloud forest, for the presents and future generations |
|||||||||
|
Open to visitors since 1995 and accessible by road since
1997, the Durika Biological Reserve (DBR) offers the true naturalist a
unique opportunity to get to know this extraordinary area with little
known biodiversity in this region of Costa Rica. Durika is a private reserve of approximately 8500 hectares
localized in the top of the Talamanca Mountain Range, in the south west
part of the country, about 17 kilometers North East of the town of
Buenos Aires. The Durika Biological Reserve is localized in a protected
zone of the Biosphere and ends at the North with the Amistad
International Park (A.I.P), an area of more than 1,000,000 hectares that
include the largest unexplored virgin forest in the whole of Costa Rica.
This fascinating area has not been explored in depth due mainly
to the difficulties of the terrain, and also because of the lack of
places in which to stay for visitors.
For this reason the Durika Foundation offers the true naturalist
a unique opportunity to get to know and appreciate this part of Costa
Rica as very few have had the opportunity to appreciate and enjoy
before.
