About this activity

Explore Monteverde’s rainforest after dark on a two-hour small-group walk led by a local naturalist guide. Search the trees and forest floor for nocturnal wildlife such as two-toed sloths, frogs, sleeping toucans, owls, armadillos, kinkajous, snakes, tarantulas, scorpions, and stick insects. Sightings vary because all wildlife is wild.

The trail is generally easy to moderate but may be muddy, uneven, or uphill. Closed-toe shoes and a rain jacket are recommended. The tour takes place at Finca Lantana, near Santa Elena and Cerro Plano. Admission and optional transportation are not included unless stated in your selected option.
