From blue morphos to owl butterflies, the flying beauties at the Summit Butterfly Farm enchant children and adults alike. You’ll find our butterfly farm at the exit of the Heliconia Trail, where you will observe dozens of insects in various stages of transformation, from caterpillars to butterflies.
