In this episode, we take you deep into the heart of Costa Rica’s Volcan Tenorio, where nature and mystery intertwine. Our adventure continues with park ranger Cecilia, who guides us through the pathways, unveiling its secrets one by one. From the startling encounter with a Bocaraca serpent to the sight of a toucan and pavas perched high above us, Cecilia shares her deep knowledge of the park’s ecosystem and history.

As we walk, the sounds of the jungle come alive, accompanied by Cecilia’s stories of conservation, advocacy and the park's hidden treasures. We also meet her boss, Isaac, and a group of eager students from UCR, who add their own perspectives to the journey.

But as dusk settles in and the forest grows darker, our mission to capture the sounds of Tenorio takes on a new urgency. The fading light brings excitement and a hint of danger, and sounds become augmented, turning our soundwalk into a race against time. Join us as we navigate the twilight, capturing the essence of Volcan Tenorio in an unforgettable adventure that blends wisdom, nature, and the thrill of the unknown.
