A Walk in the Clouds

Explore the Cloud Forest Along Suspended Aerial Walkways Discover Costa Rica’s cloud forest biodiversity along beautiful trails and suspended bridges amid the tree canopy. Begin with a short downhill walk that leads to an open hummingbird garden, where many species of these tiny, brightly colored birds gather around and amaze you with their spectacular acrobatic maneuvers. After, you will arrive at the first of four suspended bridges that cover over half a mile of verdant terrain, and rise up to 126 feet above the ground. As you continue your way over rivers and cascades, your naturalist guide will point out the most outstanding features of this misty forest. Look for many species of birds, butterflies and small mammals, and flora such as orchids, heliconias, ferns, bromeliads and more. En route back to your ship, take a stroll around picturesque gardens and pause at a local gift shop for the perfect memento. * Demanding - Physically challenging activities, including extensive walks, hiking, riding, water sports, and high altitude activities.
