Los Angeles Cloud Forest Reserve
Nicknamed “The Silence,” this cloud forest was named after its peaceful environment. Situated in Costa Rica’s Central Highlands, this cloud forest features moist conditions, high elevations and moss-covered trees, making the perfect setting for meditation, walks or other quiet activities like birdwatching.
