The observation of birds and animals in the area is a fundamental part of the journey. After we enter the forest and observe the marvels of beautiful scenery, we arrive at the river. Once there, we start a new endeavor under the forces of nature. On the river the return trip is more interesting: the horses take you around the river through lush vegetation, where you pass butterflies (like the traditional blue Morpho), many varieties of birds and wild life. Occasionally around the river you can see raccoons walking around, as well as other types of four legged creatures. At the end of your adventure on horseback at the Valmy Farm, you will be escorted to a restaurant in the town of Naranjito, where you can enjoy a refreshing beverage and a delicious lunch, while catching glimpses of the many varieties of birds in the area, including toucans & occasionally the illusive red tailed macaws.
