In June of 2019 Costa Rica announced the intention to create 5 new national parks including one encompassing the Savegre Watershed and River valley.

Some amazing hiking trails are already in place in the mountains above Trogon & Savegre Lodges.  There’s no funding for the park or purchasing the private land but the declaration is a step in the right direction.  Until the new national park is officially created you can enjoy the privately protected Río Savegre watershed on the slopes of Cerro de la Muerte
