| All guided tours in the Lapa Rios Reserve help support the ongoing maintenance of the reserve. The tours also help, in a moderate way, to preserve the National Park Corcovado by paying for a ranger to guard the park. Choosing to hike and learn with a knowledgeable local guide gives the community continuing economic support and demonstrates that this diverse lowland tropical rain forest left standing is more valuable than one cut down. | ||||||
