A short, practical list for days on the trails, by the river, and evenings around the fire.
The forest around Rio Celeste is green for a reason: rain can arrive at any time of year. A little preparation makes every day outdoors more comfortable.
For the trails
- Walking shoes or boots with good grip — trails can be muddy and roots slippery.
- A light, packable rain jacket.
- Quick-drying layers rather than cotton.
- Insect repellent and a small water bottle.
- Binoculars: howler monkeys, toucans and morpho butterflies can be seen around the property.
For the river
- A swimsuit and a quick-drying towel.
- Water shoes or sandals with grip for the stones.
- A dry bag for your phone.

For the evenings
- A light sweater: evenings in the forest can feel cooler than you expect.
- A torch or headlamp for walking the grounds after dark.
- Something good to read by the fire.
