Birdwatching Montibelli

Birdwatching at Montibelli Reserve in Nicaragua is a must-do activity for nature enthusiasts and birders visiting the country. The reserve is located just a few miles from the bustling city of Masaya and offers a peaceful retreat into the heart of nature. It is home to over 400 species of birds, many of which are unique to the region and can only be found in a few places in the world.

One of the best ways to explore the reserve and spot the many bird species that call it home is by joining one of the guided birdwatching tours. These tours are led by experienced guides who are passionate about birds and know the reserve inside out. They will take you on a journey through the lush rainforest, pointing out the different species and sharing their knowledge of the birds’ habits and behaviors.

The reserve’s birdwatching trail is a 2.5-mile loop that takes you through the different habitats of the reserve. Along the way, you will have the opportunity to spot a variety of birds such as the Black-faced Solitaire, the Hooded Warbler, and the Rufous-tailed Hummingbird. The trail also offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape and the distant volcano.

The reserve is also home to the endangered Great Green Macaw, a magnificent bird with vibrant green plumage and striking blue and yellow markings. It is a true symbol of the reserve’s rich biodiversity and a sight to behold.
