5.0 out of 5 stars Great Costa Rica Traveler's resource, September 20, 2005

This review is from: Costa Rica: Mapa-guia de la naturaleza: Nature Atlas - Guidebook (Ring-bound)

This book is a Great Costa Rica Traveler's resource as it showcases each of Costa Rica's natural areas such as National Parks and Preserves, many not known to the average traveler.
What I like about the book are not only the great full color maps but also the color photos and the descriptions accompanying
the area highlighted. The book is called a Nature Atlas Guidebook and has text in English and Spanish. The government of Costa Rica as well as numerous other agencies interested in preserving the natural wealth of Costa Rica contributed to this
book. If you are interested in visting the many parks and natural protected resources in Costa Rica, this book is a great
guide on your adventure. *** Warning it will inspire you
to spend months traveling the Costa Rica back roads and highways !

The guidebook comes in a spiral binding and is divided into sections corresponding to each of Costa Rica's provinces. Each province has a sub-sections with the parks or preserves decribeded using text, photos and maps. The scale of the map is
listed as 1 : 200,000. The book I am describing is the 2nd Edition printed in 2000. I have only encountered this book in Costa Rica during my 5 trips to that beautiful country.
