Bosque de Paz Rain/Cloud Forest is a 1000-hectares (3000-acres) privately-owned Biological Reserve that acts , as a natural biological corridor, connects the Poás Volcano National Park with the Juan Castro Blanco National Park. It is a spectacularly rich ecosystem because of its privileged location, on the Continental Divide, at an altitude ranging from 1450 to 2450 m.a.s.l. The Reserve is privately owned and it is exclusively open only to prearranged visits. The number of visitors is limited to keep environmental impact at minimum levels.
There are several different trails from 1 km to 7.5 km long, adding up to a total of 22 kilometers through both primary and secondary forest. More than 331 species of birds have been recorded in Bosque de Paz Reserve since July, 1997, including the Resplendent Quetzal, the Scaled Antpitta, the Black Guan, the Emerald Toucanet, the Three Wattled Bellbird, the Ornate Hawk-Eagle among many others, and abundant hummingbirds.
