Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve Guided Hike Tour
It was founded in 1972 by George and Harriet Powell and is the best known forest in the Monteverde Zone.
The Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve sits high on the continental divide in northwestern Costa Rica. In the highest parts, visitors can experience the force of the trade winds coming from the Atlantic coast. The varied climate and latitudinal levels help produce a vast biodiversity, creating abundant wildlife within the forest; just to mention a few are the jaguar, the black guan, the ocelot, the emerald toucan, the three-wattled bell umbrella bird, the bald bird, the blue-crowned motmot, the quetzal, hummingbirds and dozens of miles of insects.
Discover the magic of the Cloud Forest of Costa Rica.

During your trip, the guide will explain about the flora and fauna of the ecosystem and you will learn the relationships that exist between the different species of animals and plants.
