    Mistico Hanging Bridges

    April 23, 2022 in Costa Rica ⋅ ⛅ 79 °F

    We had the best time today at the Mistico Hanging Bridges! We did a 2 mile walk thru the Costa Rican jungle and over 16 different bridges. There was so much vegetation, flowers, and animal life to take in!!

    We saw these tiny red and blue frogs that were VERY loud - think crickets. A guide told us they are extremely poisonous and we’d die if we touched one. We also saw these tiny yellow vipers - again, just as venomous as a rattle snake. There was also a massive termite nest. The highlight tho was at the end of the trip about six capuchin monkeys playing right next to the path in the trees above us! We stayed and watched them for 15 minutes or so. A worker said that in the 10 years he had worked there he had never seen the monkeys this close. Felt very grateful for the experience.    Read more
