A Restored Landscape Full of Life
Green Hill Wildlife Tours sits on a farm that began active forest restoration in 2022. As native trees reclaim the land in Bijagua de Upala, wildlife is returning in kind. The Two-toed Sloth, Three-toed Sloth, Baird's Tapir, Keel-billed Toucan, and Collared Aracari are all regular presences here — not occasional sightings, but species our guides encounter time and again on trails they know intimately. Visiting Green Hill means witnessing conservation in action while meeting the animals that depend on it.
Our guides have spent years learning the rhythms of this specific landscape — which trees the toucans favour, where the tapir drinks, which branches a sloth returns to week after week. That local knowledge is what turns a walk into a genuine wildlife encounter.
Every tour contributes directly to the forest restoration work underway at Green Hill. The species you come to see are thriving here precisely because of that commitment — and your visit helps sustain it.
Birding, herping, night walks, wildlife photography — every tour is a chance to encounter the species that make Green Hill special. Reach out to plan your visit; we're available seven days a week and happy to tailor an experience to your interests.
