Cochranella euknemos

Night tourApprox. 3 hModerate difficulty

A nocturnal journey deep into the rainforest in search of the mythical Cochranella euknemos. The route climbs gently uphill, paying attention to the nocturnal life that begins to emerge among the humidity, vegetation, and sounds of the forest. Along the experience, it is also possible to encounter other forms of life associated with this environment, such as snakes, spiders, and wildlife typical of the tropical rainforest.

More than a targeted search, it is an experience of attentive observation in which each stretch of the path reveals signs of the territory and its inhabitants. The possibility of encounters with species such as Bothrops asper, together with the discreet and enigmatic presence of Cochranella euknemos, makes this tour a rigorous, respectful, and deeply connected immersion into the nocturnal rainforest.
