This is the ideal tour for those nature lovers who want to wake up with the forest.
It is about a 5-hour walk with a local, naturalist and bilingual guide who is an expert in birds, where the main objective is precisely to observe birds and learn more about each one of them.
The naturalist guide is of great importance, since he identifies, teaches, takes photos with the help of the telescope and explains aspects of interest about what is observed. It is the ideal tour to get to know, take photos and enjoy memories that will last forever about your visit to Monteverde.
The start time is at 6:00 am, in the CASEM square, which is a very active place at that time and then we move to the selected reserve. The parks open to the public at 7:00 am, for this reason, it is possible to have breakfast if the visitor wishes, before continuing with the tour.
The distance of the route varies from 2km to 3km depending on the activity of the forest and the trails are very well designed for anyone able to walk. Not recommended for people in wheelchairs or with mobility disabilities. However, there is the option of renting a special golf cart for this type of visitor.
The main objective is to learn more about the Monteverde forest and observe the natural wealth found in it. For this, the guide carries a high definition telescope with him, to have a better appreciation of what is observed.
This activity is very special for people who want to really know the natural wealth that we find in Monteverde and in Costa Rica in general. Costa Rica is world famous for its rich biodiversity and even more so for the abundance of birds found there. For its part, Monteverde is known as a natural paradise and a strategic point for bird watching, especially the Resplendent Quetzal, Toucans, Bell Bird, among others. In addition, different animals are usually found, such as mammals, reptiles or insects.
This is a nice experience if you want to wake up in the forest surrounded by the wonders of nature and observing the jewels found in this beautiful place.
