The Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve contains six distinct ecological zones. There are wind sculpted woodlands on the exposed ridges, protected cove rainforests of majestically tall trees festooned with orchids, bromeliads, ferns, vines, and mosses; poorly drained areas support swamp forests, while parts of the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, dissected by deep gorges, have numerous crystal clear streams tumbling over rapids and waterfalls.

The Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve contains six distinct ecological zones. There are wind sculpted woodlands on the exposed ridges, protected cove rainforests of majestically tall trees festooned with orchids, bromeliads, ferns, vines, and mosses; poorly drained areas support swamp forests, while parts of the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, dissected by deep gorges, have numerous crystal clear streams tumbling over rapids and waterfalls. The variable climate and altitude have helped produce an extremely high biodiversity. Most accommodation is found in the entry town of Sant Elena with more secluded options that spill off the side of the road that leads from the town, through pristine cloud forest to the reserve.
Best experiences
Hike in Curi-Cancha Nature Reserve
Curi-Cancha is a 205-acre private nature reserve located in the heart of Monteverde. Take a private guided hike through its seven kilometres of biodiverse nature trails, spotting and learning about the flora and fauna of the tropical cloud forest.
Take a Sky Tram/Sky Trek/Sky Walk
This adventure and nature combo is best suited to thrill seekers. The Sky Walk combines trails and suspension bridges; the Sky Tram gondolas carry you up a mountainous ascent; and the Sky Trek zip line brings you back down canyons and through treetops.
Walk in Monteverde Reserve at night
After nightfall, a new world awakens in the cloud forest. With unique wildlife active at night, from frogs to bats and little to no humans, the experience of hiking for nocturnal biodiversity is even more attractive.OUR FAVOURITE PLACES TO STAY
