Hike from La Fortuna to Santa Elena over two days with a small group of up to eight. Expect steep, humid forest trails, river crossings, a basic cabin stay, dinner, breakfast, and farmland views before reaching Monteverde’s cloud-forest country.

On the way to the area he educated us on the history, politics, natural resources, and way of living in Mexico. Once we arrived in the town, it was evident the community respects him. It was immediately obvious he is passionate about the environment and…”
You’ll spend two days around Sipi Falls with a private guide such as William or Simon, combining waterfall hikes, rock climbing, abseiling, coffee culture, and Mount Elgon views. The $100 price covers the guide and entry fees, but not transport, meals, or accommodation. Moderate fitness is needed.
