15 years ago Asdrubal (elder brother)
walking on the farm recently purchased by our father "Victor
Alvarez," who is a native of the area and a descendant of the
first inhabitants here, discovered the first cataract, which was
surprising because it was unknown what had in the property.
The following week was organized an
expedition to retrace familiar part of the farm and found the
second waterfall, which we also drew attention because in a few
yards away had 2 cataracts.
Due to the broken terrain and state,
we think that perhaps had more cataracts and was discovered as
well as the other 3.
Since then, and thanks to increased tourism to Monteverde, we
begin to mature the idea of building something small that could
draw attention to the tourist as well as making and was 8 years
ago we opened the doors of our cataract tourism both
international and local .
We are a family microenterprise started as a tourism project
which each year we have introduced new services according to the
growth we have been experiencing.
At first only offered entry to visit
the waterfalls, walking on a footpath, then added a horseback
tour to tour the property, last year we opened a restaurant at
the entrance, now include a tour of the dairy of the family who
is a short distance of the falls and in this moment we are with
two new projects to incorporate medium-term which will be
opening a tour of abseiling and a shelter to offer tourists the
possibility of pernotar on our farm.
Thanks to the support of many local and foreign tourists who
visit us during the year, we want to provide the best service in
each of our activities and invite you to visit Falls Cool Wind
is a natural paradise that close to you not to be missed.
