Monteverde’s modern history began when a Quaker community settled the highlands in the 1950s and later helped protect cloud-forest tracts that became internationally renowned reserves.
Monteverde’s cloud forests are protected through local reserves and community-led tourism; travelers are encouraged to stay on trails, avoid single-use plastics, and respect wildlife viewing distances.
