The Experience
With a plethora of natural beauty surrounding us, our Guias ventured into our lands to reveal the most magical, hidden and private locations for you to discover.
Los Tirrases
- Set off on an energetic hike through the primary forest of Cedral Valley, bordering Chirripó National Park. Venture along wooded paths, surrounded by tall trees and along the ridge with views of the mountains and into the quaint town of Cedral.
- Your walk culminates at a beautiful open garden, with every flower and fruit intentionally planted to attract specific species of birds, butterflies and mammals. Here you will have the opportunity to spot avian species from hawks and turkey vultures enjoying the thermals overhead to colorful tanagers and hummingbirds seeking their sweet nectar of the garden’s flowers. Enjoy an energizing snack in your peaceful surroundings, and return to the hacienda by car.

Cerro Lanoso
- In the Talamanca mountain range, a magical and exclusive place exists, where nature has found the perfect conditions to create a blanket of colored moss that perfectly adorns the forest floor. Begin your scenic hike at Mora's Farm, where you will find a 4.5 km trail hike through fields and primary forest that will have you climbing 450 meters to the top of the mountain, which sits at 1,564 meters.
- Departing the hacienda in the morning, you will arrive at Mora’s following a 30 minute drive into our neighboring valley of Cedral. Enjoy an energizing breakfast snack before heading out on the trail. A moderate hike which will keep your blood pumping and legs moving, the pinnacle of this journey is your arrival at the open moss field. This colorful natural cover cushions the ground and provides the perfect place to relax. Refuel and take in your surroundings, allowing the sounds, smells and sights of the forest to sink in.

Roca de Nubes
- An intense hike for true explorers, this high-altitude adventure sees you gaining close to 900 meters altitude over two kilometers. Starting early morning, drive up into the Cedral Valley to meet your starting point. From here, you’ll walk amongst the clouds, through thick primary forest and around large boulders.
- To achieve the ultimate reward of reaching the mirador, you will need to test your own limits. When you reach the summit at 2,000 meters, you are treated to an unbelievable view. High in the mountains, you float above the clouds - giving true meaning to “Roca de Nubes.” Here, you’ll enjoy a mountain snack with incredible panoramic views. The way down sees you testing your balance, as your descent reveals a different challenge.
