Rainforest Conservation & Wellness Expedition in Costa Rica's Osa Peninsula

The Baruch Camp Conservation Category is conservation in its purest form, set in one of the most intense and biodiverse places on Earth. This isn't a passive nature tour—you'll roll up your sleeves and get involved in meaningful environmental work: beach cleanups along the Osa coastline, tree planting and reforestation projects that help restore the rainforest, wildlife education sessions, river studies, and sea turtle conservation programs. Each activity is guided by knowledgeable locals who share the deeper story of the ecosystem and the challenges it faces. The program is designed for groups of travelers, students, and nature lovers who want a deeper connection with nature through education and hands-on experience. Between the work, you'll go on guided nature hikes where you might spot tapirs, monkeys, sloths, and a staggering array of birds, and you'll learn about the region's sustainability efforts and the importance of protecting these habitats. You'll also get a taste of authentic Costa Rican culture, from the food to the warm, welcoming vibe of the people. The camp is located in the southern region of Puerto Jiménez, right at the edge of Corcovado National Park, so you're literally surrounded by tropical rainforest and rivers. This retreat is about making a real impact while experiencing one of the planet's most spectacular natural environments. It's an adventure that educates, inspires, and leaves you feeling like you've genuinely contributed to something bigger than yourself.
