Treetop Walkway

Walk through the trees...

What do the creatures of the forest see? You'll finally discover the answer to this question when you get a birds-eye view of the rainforest canopy. From the bridges of the Treetop Walkway Tour — which vary from 150 ft (50 m) to 500 ft (170 m) in length and are suspended from heights ranging from 36 ft (12 m) to 180 ft (60 m) — you will easily be able to study this unique tropical ecosystem, catching glimpses of birds, monkeys, sloths and more as they scamper across leafy emerald branches.

Exploring Costa Rica's rainforests on this level is a privilege usually reserved for researchers. If you're hoping to make extraordinary memories and go on a unique adventure, then you're about to book one amazing travel story! It's one thing to hear the sounds of nature and see these canopy-dwelling animals in a zoo, but it's quite another to breath impossibly fresh air and visit them in their own home.

Naturalist Guided Tour

Guided tours — led by bilingual, professionally trained guides — are available as well. On these tours, you will learn about the plants, mammals, and birds that call Monteverde home, as well as hear stories that unravel the region’s captivating cultural history. Self-guided tours, however, are an ideal choice for anyone wanting to experience this forest at their own pace.

This walkway can be enjoyed by visitors of all ages and physical abilities, and will take about 2.5 hours to complete. It’s recommended that you wear long pants, shoes suitable for hiking, and a waterproof jacket. Naturally, cameras and binoculars will come in handy while touring this area!
