*Please let us know in advance how you will arrive at the program because we will need to coordinate with the staff to pick you up at the entrance, the taxi if you take the Jaco option, and to be attentive to your arrival.
If you want to arrive on your own to the place or something happens on your way to the program and don´t have the option to contact us, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO CALL THE TAXI NUMBERS that you can see previously, because both Lillian and Miguel are trustworthy and they know the route perfectly. You will have to tell them that you are a Corcovado Foundation Volunteer and you will need to get into the program at Punta Mala Refuge.
In addition, to access the place it is necessary to have prior approved permission, and the guards of the entrance need to know the license plate number of the vehicle that will arrive. This process would be facilitated using the recommended transportation since these you already have the required information.
