Cloudbridge Nature Reserve

Cloudbridge is a private nature reserve that stretches from 1550m to 2600m (5085-8530 ft) in the Talamanca mountains of Costa Rica. Since 2002, 255 hectares (630 acres) of cattle pasture or cultivated land with a further 28 hectares (70 acres) of primary forest has been purchased by the reserve. Since it’s beginning, Cloudbridge has been dedicated to the conservation and reforestation of the cloudforest. The Cloudbridge nature reserve is on a mission to reforest areas of degraded agricultural land and nurture those areas back to a climax forest composition. As we have grown, education and research have played a large part in what we do; teaching the importance of and expanding our knowledge of this unique habitat for wildlife, sustainable tourism and climate change. Cloudbridge provides research and volunteer opportunities in one of the world’s most beautiful and biodiverse regions. Participants can pursue independent research, contribute to our ongoing projects, or apply their existing expertise while gaining new skills through hands-on volunteering experiences. Open to visitors 365 days a year for hiking and wildlife tours, we enable people of all generations and all walks of life to be able to enjoy and learn about this incredible part of Costa Rica.
