The Rain Forest Aerial Tram is a unique ecotourism and research facility, visitors ride the Tram on a fascinating excursion through the rain forest canopy and its hanging gardens of plants and animals hidden at the tops of tall trees. Home to two-thirds of all rain forest species, the rain forest canopy is a little-known world of tremendous beauty and extraordinary biological diversity. The park, (adjacent to Braulio Carillo National Park and only an hour from San Jose), possesses one of the richest canopy communities in the world.
