 The plateau is a paradise for bird watchers, supporting a variety of rare and uncommon species. Please ask your guide for the best birding locations.

Orchids

 

The Plateau is home to over 30 different species of orchid, some of them endemic to the Plateau. For those interested in orchids, guests must be prepared to get wet as they grow throughout the rainy season. Orchid season runs from late October into May but peaks in January and February.
