At the beginning of the 21st century, the family decided to open this natural forest sanctuary to the public, and they hired a company in order to develop the Hanging Bridges of Arenal eco-tourism project, which would allow thousands of people to enjoy the forests beauty comfortably and safely.
Twelve years later, as per the initial agreement, the development company returned the project to its owners, and the familys third generation currently manages the nature reserve.
Under the Mistico Park brand, today the park offers not only the hanging bridges attraction, but also a wide variety of tours that allow all types of visitors to enjoy being in direct contact with nature, where many native species live in a richly biologically diverse ecosystem.
