Highlights

What makes this experience special at Curi-Cancha Reserve is the opportunity to explore the forest accompanied by a local naturalist guide specializing in bird watching, with years dedicated to knowledge of Monteverde’s fauna and ecosystems. Its excellent trails allow you to discover impressive strangler Ficuses and even explore the interior of some of these magnificent trees, important for species such as toucans, parrots, parakeets, trogons and, in season, the Shining Quetzal. During approximately 3 hours of birdwatching and wildlife watching, you will tour forests and open areas that create different natural habitats. In a pleasant and accessible walk you can experience two fascinating living areas, increasing the opportunities to find an extraordinary diversity of birds and fauna of the Monteverde Cloud Forest.

About Monteverde

Monteverde is a mountain community in Costa Rica's cloud forest, known for misty reserves, hanging bridges, birdlife and coffee farms.

Monteverde is a scattering of farms and small villages on the Tilarán Mountains, around 1,400 metres up, where moist winds from the Caribbean wrap the ridge in cloud. Quaker families from the United States settled here in the 1950s and began dairy farming, and they helped protect the forest above. The Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve and the neighbouring Santa Elena Reserve preserve mossy trees, ferns, orchids and hanging vines.
