The hot spot to visit in Costa Rica seems to be Monteverde, and for good reason. The place is amazing, but it's also in the middle of nowhere. In fact, the people that live there have requested that it remain thusly isolated. Getting there seems like a pretty easy task, until you reach the final 35 km (intentionally unpaved, rocky, dirt roads). Oh sure, there are 4 (maybe even 5) different roads into town, but they're all a bit bumpy.The views along the way are amazing though. We drove into town (and away) during sutsets (on Friday and Sunday respectively*) and we got to see the clouds come in and the colors change. It's really quite beautiful. It's super thick rain forest up there. Technically, it's a cloud forest because it's pretty much enveloped in the clouds most days.
