This unique location on the Río Grande de Térraba river basin is the ideal gateway for an encounter with the country’s Pre-Columbian past and aboriginal culture. This indigenous territory is the setting for ancient petroglyphs (hieroglyphs carved in stone) and other examples of a rich cultural heritage, impressive natural attractions and panoramic views of the Talamanca mountain range. Visiting this and other nearby communities will bring you closer to ancestral wisdom about the use of medicinal plants, traditional games, and the history of this unique and peace-loving people.
