- Today we explore the amazing Santa Elena Cloud Forest in Monteverde, Costa Rica!
Today we took the short 20 minute shuttle bus from Santa Elena town up towards the Santa Elena Cloud forest reserve! The 765 acre reserve which is leased by the local high school helping support higher education in the area was an absolute pleasure to explore. We walked the 2.5 hr Encantado trail which is the 2nd longest in the park but there are multiple other trails to explore.

Absolutely stunning. I love forest areas like that. The flora and fauna include lots I recognise from my time in New Zealand. At 3:53 the unfolding 'koru' or fern leaf. An iconic symbol of New Zealand. On Tenerife we too experienced layers of clouds and blue skies. The further up one went the different weather scenarios one encountered.
The cloud forests of Costa Rica really are stunning! Good spot on the Koru :) Hopefully once this terrible virus has gone we will be able to visit NZ and create some content there! As always thank you for your support! :)
Hi Matt & Marti!
Very nice video!
Thanks very much for visiting our reserve and Hope you are doing well on this times!
We will share your video on our social networks! :) kind regards.
Psd: "We already moved the tree that felt on the trail xD"
Thank you so much for the support! The Santa Elena Reserve was a massive highlight of our trip throughout central America and we can't wait to return!
So incredibly lush, looked like such a peaceful yet exciting time
It's one of the most beautiful nature walks we have ever done!
One of the best Costa Rica videos I've seen.
Our cloud forest is really incredible, in danger of extinction due to climate change, we hope you enjoy it, its greenery, aroma, flora and fauna, welcome to the clouds of America.
How beautiful! What stunning and unique scenery and interesting information about the cloud forest. Thanks for sharing.
Santa Elena Cloud Forest looks amazing! We really would love to explore it. it seems nice to walk around without a guide and just admire the beauty of the rainforest and the clouds. Beautiful video!
Thanks guys! It really feels like such a long time ago now! :( Stay safe, we'll plan a new adventure and meet up soon!
I am a Costa Rican living in Canada and I have just found out that Cost Rica has opened up its borders and flights are now able to bring visitors without the need of a Covid-19 test. Visitors only need to fill out at health form in order to visit.
Beautiful Costa Rica! Thanks for sharing my friend 👍😊
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching :) Hopefully we can get back there soon. Thanks for the support.
Wow, I just found your channel - I love it! Love your Eng. accent, and I love the fact that you two show us the sights (the usual "travel" videos show 1,001 shots of peoples' girlfriends in bikinis doing a variety of boring activities and eating). But you actually show us the sights (the point of travel videos, surely), and your footage is lovely!! Bravo! I can't wait to see more!
Thanks you soo much! Its so nice to get good feedback like this! We will keep going once this crisis is all over!
Pura Vida 🤙🏼🇨🇷
Wow that looks so magical! Looks like something straight out of a movie, haha! Great video guys!
Its a magical place to explore! Thanks for watching :)
wow looks so good there we want to make it to costa rica sometime
If you love nature then this is THE place to be! Thanks for watching.
Cool to see the rainforest during the rainy season. We went to Monteverde in the dry season, visiting the hanging bridges. Nice video, keep it up :)
Thank you!! yes it is spectacular during rain season!
Astonishing, the whole time I see two persons walking in the cloud forest, they are talking about - what a pitty.
This is so cool! I visited a cloud forest when I was in Costa Rica, but I think it must have been a different one. This one looks amazing though!
Yeh it was amazing! It's a huge reserve and well worth checking out if you ever get the chance :) Thanks for the support!
Really enjoyed the Whole CR playlist 👌
Awesome, thank you!
Beautiful, but it would be scary to walk in that huge trees .
Luckily the trails are marked really well, it's actually quite peaceful. Thanks for the support!
Loved the video ! Great music too !
Glad you enjoyed it!
what time of year was this? planning a trip there and hoping to see orchids in bloom in the wild
Ain't no telling how many medicinal plants are out there.
Very nice Vlog of Costa Rica. I do travel blogs as well and would absolutely appreciate a follow back to help build each other‘s channels. Really looking forward to more of your videos as I will be taking a trip to Costa Rica in the future.
Thanks so much :)
There are 2? What is the other one? Nice video.
Thank you 😊
Yes apparently there are two: Santa Elena cloud forest and Monteverde cloud forest. They told us the monteverde one could get very busy with tourists when we visited (feb) and they recommended the SE one if we wanted more quiet on the trails.
17,000?!
That was for both of us, I totally forgot to give a bit more info there!
@@Hungry_Voyager Oooooooohhhh
i always dont like the loud music in those videos. the video itself is lovely
Maybe, do you haven't seen a some dinosaur?
