    About Monteverde

    Monteverde is a lush mountain paradise that stole our hearts the moment we arrived. From wandering misty cloud forest trails to ziplining through the canopy, this place is an adventure lover’s dream. We’ve spotted the elusive resplendent quetzal, sipped locally grown coffee, and braved hanging bridges high above the forest floor—and we’d do it all again in a heartbeat!

    If you’re ready to explore this magical part of Costa Rica, check out our guides below for the best things to do, places to eat, and tips to make the most of your Monteverde adventure!
