Opis
The Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve consists of over 10,500 hectares of cloud forest and 6 ecological zones, set at an elevation of 4724 ft (1440 m) above sea level. 90% of the area is virgin forest. A high biodiversity area, consisting of over 2,500 plant species, 100 species of mammals and 120 reptilian and amphibian species.
But the Monteverde Cloud Forest is also a birders paradise. More than 400 bird species can be observed. 30 of the 400 species that can be found here are hummingbirds. Most sought after birds are the Three-wattled Bellbird and the amazing Resplendent Quetzal, which moves seasonally from high elevation to lower elevations. Other special birds that can be spotted are Black-and-yellow Silky-flycatcher, Blue-throated Goldentail and Chiriqui Quail-Dove. But many, many more, see the birdlist below.

NieDodatkowe informacje
Be prepared for rapidly changing weather conditions. With its location on the continental divide, Monteverde can follow either Pacific or Caribbean weather patterns. A cool, rainy, misty morning can give way to brilliant blue skies and intense sunshine in just a few minutes, and then, visitors can suddenly find themselves blanketed in fog. Always bring a hat, rain jacket or poncho, and waterproof bags or ziplock bags to store your personal electronics and important documents. When it’s misty or rainy, early mornings and evenings can be very chilly. Be prepared with a sweater or fleece.
