Audio Guide of the Monteverde Hanging Bridges

Most parks such as Selvatura Park or Sky Adventures are open every day from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM. To get there, you can take a taxi from Santa Elena or book the direct transportation offered by the parks themselves on their official website.

It is not free; it is a paid tour that ranges from $30 to $45 USD per adult, depending on the park you choose. I recommend buying your tickets in advance directly from Selvatura Park or Sky Adventures to secure your spot.

Set aside at least 1.5 to 2 hours to complete the route at a relaxed pace. If you enjoy photography or birdwatching, you may take a bit longer while enjoying the canopy views.

These bridges allow you to walk through the canopy of the cloud forest, where 90% of Monteverde's biodiversity lives. It is a unique opportunity to see wildlife from an aerial perspective that you do not get when walking on the ground.

The dry season, from December to April, is ideal for avoiding heavy rain, although the forest is always humid. The best time is at 7:00 AM or 8:00 AM, when birds, including the resplendent quetzal, are most active and there is less mist.

Yes, some parks such as Selvatura Park have designed wide, flat trails suitable for wheelchairs and older visitors. However, it is advisable to check the specific conditions on each operator's website before going.

You are very close to the famous Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve. You can also visit the Butterfly Garden or take a coffee tour in the Santa Elena area.

It is essential to wear comfortable closed-toe shoes, such as sneakers or hiking boots, and a waterproof jacket or poncho, since the weather changes quickly. Do not forget your binoculars for spotting distant animals and insect repellent.
