Nature Preserves, Monteverde Cloud Forest
Fodor's Review:
The 54,000-acre Children's Eternal Rain Forest (Bosque Eterno de los Niños) dwarfs the Monteverde and Santa Elena reserves. It began life as a school project in Sweden among children interested in saving a piece of the rain forest, and blossomed into a fundraising effort among students from 44 countries. Much of it is not open to the public, but the Monteverde Conservation League offers stays at San Gerardo and Poco Sol, two remote field stations within the forest. The $34 packages include dormitory accommodation and meals. Hiking tours of the forest are available
