About 30 minutes from Kioro is the Mystico Hanging Bridge Park that has a two mile hike through the tropical rainforest complete with suspension bridges that swing and sway as you walk above the forest! Not an easy thing for me to do as heights are not my thing. However, the sites, sounds, and smells of this remarkable place make such a hike a memorable event. More information is at MysticoPark on the web. It is a large and complex site, but really worth spending some time looking at it.
