Summary |
One of the main characteristics of a cloud forest is a high level of humidity, which allows for abundant and diverse flora and fauna. As Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve is located along the Continental Divide, the warm winds from both the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans together with frequent precipitation, create the perfect combination for one of the best cloud forest reserves in Costa Rica.
