This region of the country
benefits from generous bouts of rainfall which makes for particularly
lush terrain. With the ever popular Monteverde Cloud Forest and erupting
Arenal Volcano in residence, this region draws visitors with a particular
interest in the country’s ecological and outdoor attractions.
Canopy tours, nature
hikes, wildlife safaris and windsurfing are popular past times for the
eco adventurer. And in the northern most reaches of this area, birders
are privy to the prolific bird life that makes its home in the Cano
Negro Wildlife Refuge.
