CPI Monteverde was established as an extension of CPI in 1996. The Monteverde zone, which comprises ten towns with 8,000 people, is situated on the Continental Divide at an elevation of 5,600 feet. The region is well known for its commitment to the sustainable development of the community and the conservation of the cloud forest reserves. This area is a rural region and is a 4 hour bus ride from San José. Buses travel daily to and from Monteverde at 6:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. The average daily temperature is 65 to 75 F. The climate is typically cool and at times wet so it is recommended to bring rain gear and boots (especially if you plan to visit the reserves) as well as pants, long-sleeved shirts and a light jacket.
