Even though Costa Rica represents only 0.03% of the Earth's surface, it is home to more than 6% of the world's biodiversity: a real testament to the country's specific location (forming a bridge between North and South America helping species to migrate) and steady commitment to conservation with around 28% of its territory being protected. 

Walking around in the cloud forest treetops offers a unique and exciting new perspective, allowing you to immerse yourself in the curious world that lives above the forest floor. It's an experience that will take your nature exploration to new heights (literally) and allow you to witness the canopy's extraordinary ecosystem up close. 

Costa Rica's extraordinary biodiversity stems from its diverse geography and climate. We've seen in previous articles that Costa Rica's varied landscapes, from lowland to high-altitude regions, create distinct ecosystems fostering an incredible array of flora and fauna found nowhere else in the world. 

In an era of constant connectivity, it's easy to feel disconnected from the natural world. Amidst bustling cities and digital distractions, the simple act of immersing yourself in a forest has become a rare treasure.
