 Today, the 6 hour hike will take you through cloud forest to Los Ladios Biological Station right in the heart of the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve. Monteverde is acclaimed as one of the most important and extensive reserves in Central America. It contains habitats on both the Atlantic and the Pacific slope that include eight different ecological zones. Wind-battered elfin woods on exposed ridges are spectacularly dwarfed, whereas more protected areas have majestically tall trees festooned with orchids, bromeliads, ferns and vines. If you are still in good shape, your Ocarina guide takes you on an exciting night tour to track mammals such as Pecaris, Ocelots and Pumas after dinner. Overnight: Eladios Refuge (Breakfast, Snack, & Dinner).
