Sloth Observation Tour –day Or Night From Arenal

One of the most beloved animals of our country is the popular sloth. This animal captivates us with its tenderness and peculiar slow behavior. We cannot deny that we have envied their pace at sometime in our own lives. The La Fortuna area is a unique place when it comes to sloths. Our climate, protection, availability of food, and the essential absence of predators make this privileged property an amazing natural oasis. You have the option of enjoying the activity in the morning at 8:00 a.m., in the afternoon at 2:30 p.m., or at 5:30 p.m., as a night walk. The 2-toed sloths are more active at night.
