The trip has an adventurous component as the route is mostly on secondary roads; however quite safe due to the experienced drivers that make the trip daily. Along the way you witness the transition from rain forest to cloud forest as you reach an altitude of over 3600 feet (1200 meters) above sea level. And, you can often view the the Pacific Ocean in the Western horizon as you approach the Monteverde area.
