Monteverde

4.1
Adventure Parks Nightlife
Monteverde is all about natural attractions, not surprising for an eco-tourism hotspot known for its cloud forests and rich diversity of animal life. Perched 1,440 m (4,662 ft) above sea level, the town of around 6,500 inhabitants enjoys a wet climate that endows the surrounding forest with enough water to create a lush canopy. Adventurous things to do in Monteverde include ziplining, canyoning, and exploring the jungle canopy on a renowned network of boardwalks. Monteverde is in Province of Puntarenas. When using our Costa Rica trip maker to make an itinerary online, Monteverde holidays come together around your tastes, interests, and requirements, with us taking care of the logistics.
