hello Pablo

Brownsberg is really good spot for herping. Good thing is that you can go herping around the accomodation on the trails in the park. The manager allowed us to go herping at night. Poisson dart frogs even on the campground are easy to find (phyllobates vittatus). We found them even in the toilets. Around the waterfall there we found mating atelopus.
