About this tour
Discover the incredible bird diversity at El Silencio Reserve, a natural gem located just minutes from La Fortuna and very close to the majestic Arenal Volcano. This tour takes you through a unique combination of habitats, including open areas, forest edges, and primary tropical forest, creating the perfect setting for a complete birdwatching experience.
Along the trails, you will explore open fields and clearings where species typical of open habitats are often seen, while deeper in the forest you can find more specialized tropical birds. This mix of ecosystems promotes constant bird activity throughout the morning.
