Stand at the rim of twin volcanic sinkholes swallowed by scalesia cloud forest, then descend into a world cruise passengers rarely see.
What to expect
You'll walk forest trails thick with vermillion flycatchers and Darwin's finches, arrive at the twin sinkholes shrouded in mist, and hear from your guide how this ecosystem differs entirely from the arid coast. It's cooler, greener, and stranger than anything postcard Galapagos suggests.
Good to know
Combine with the tortoise reserve for a full highlands morning; bring a light jacket, the highlands run 15+ degrees cooler than the coast. Book a private guide rather than joining a shared van for pace and access.
