Cacique is a rare 110-acre high-elevation property in the heart of San José de Rivas, in Costa Rica's growing Chirripó Valley. At roughly 4,000 feet above sea level, the land enjoys a cool, comfortable mountain climate year-round, no air conditioning or heat required, with sweeping views across rainforest valleys, winding rivers, and the highlands of southern Costa Rica. Nearly half of the property is preserved in conservation forest, a vibrant landscape of mature jungle, freshwater springs, waterfalls, caves, fertile soil, and miles of internal trails. Native birdlife fills the canopy, making it a true haven for naturalists. Along the western boundary, the Río Chimirol flows beside the land, offering natural swimming holes and cascading waterfalls. Eleven existing plateaus are ready for sustainable development. The property holds an approved water concession for residential or commercial use, and electric service is already connected. Cacique borders the Los Gigantes Nature Reserve, with a six-kilometer trail leading to a mountaintop viewpoint. Nearby, Chirripó National Park draws climbers to Costa Rica's highest peak, and La Amistad International Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, protects one of Central America's largest conservation areas. Despite its peaceful setting, the property is well connected: 45 minutes to San Isidro de El General for shopping, healthcare, and daily services, and 90 minutes to the Pacific coast. Locally, enjoy morning coffee at a village café, biodynamic farming at Finca Adama, pottery at Finca Brunca, and the Wednesday farmers market. Ideal as a sustainable homestead, eco-retreat, wellness sanctuary, or conservation-focused hospitality project, Cacique is a rare opportunity to create something meaningful in one of Costa Rica's most naturally rich mountain communities.
