I was pumped to go to “the world’s largest labyrinth” just because that sounds amazing and I made it to Costa Rica. It was more than I could have ever imagined. I’m still unpacking it. This post has been a couple months in the making but I just can’t figure out how to find the words or choose the pictures to do it justice.
Here’s some answers to questions I’ve gotten:
🌀No, you don’t get pricked by the cactus. The paths were made 6 feet wide to account for their growth.
🌀 Yes, it was hot. I went at 8am to beat the heat. They also suggested after 4pm.
🌀 They say it takes 1-1.5 hours to walk. It took me an hour and 45 minutes. I was really into it.
🌀 Yes, you can walk off or straight to the center, just like any labyrinth. Except that this one has two centers, even creating a third “center” at the midway point of the path and the design.
🌀You can also return to the labyrinth- if you remember where you left. Maybe mark it and the direction you were going. You can orient yourself by finding the geodesic dome that looks over it.
🌀Yes, there are bathrooms.
🌀According to my research, It’s an original design of a Vesica Piscis, co-created by two Costa Ricans: Ronald Esquivel, an architect, labyrinth designer, and specialist in sacred geometry, and Sergio Salas, a homeopathic doctor and dowser who identified the two energy centers. Read about it. It’s amazing.
🌀 I sent up my visit through the “book a visit” button on their website and then communicating directly with G***t Depypere, the owner of the farm. Immensely grateful to her and all the staff who care for the land and help make visits possible.
🌀 Yes, I’ll be back.
