Sloths top everyone’s wish list, so I’ve collected the walks where guides reliably find them: quiet trails, spotting scopes, small groups. The scope is the whole trick; you get the close-up while the sloth stays sixty feet up, undisturbed. La Fortuna has both two-toed and three-toed species, and good guides often find both in a morning.
Discover the truth about sloths and their speed on the thrilling Sloth Watching Tour in Costa Rica, but be prepared for a surprising twist that will leave you in awe.
