Highlights

As only 1% of all remaining forests on the planet are classified as cloud forests, here you have the opportunity to walk through clouds in a very dense tropical forest. We only care about what we understand so even animals are not something you are going to see in big quantities, you will enjoy and learn the magic of the massive diversity of aerial plants.

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.
