Description

Embark on a captivating journey through the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, a biodiverse haven founded in 1972 by George and Harriet Powell. Nestled high on the continental divide in northwestern Costa Rica, this reserve offers a unique blend of climate and altitude, fostering a rich tapestry of wildlife. As you traverse nine distinct trails, your experienced guide will illuminate the intricate relationships between the forest's flora and fauna, including sightings of jaguars, ocelots, and the resplendent quetzal. Midway through your adventure, reach the 'La Ventana' viewpoint, where the breathtaking panorama of Costa Rica's continental divide unfolds before you. Feel the invigorating trade winds as you gaze upon the Central Pacific and northern coastal plains. Continue to the Wilford Guindon Suspension Bridge, a 100-meter marvel that offers a canopy-level view of epiphytic plants like bromeliads and orchids. Conclude your hike with a visit to the reserve's gift shop, showcasing local crafts. This tour promises not only an educational experience but also a deep connection with the natural world, all while ensuring your safety and comfort.
