Cerro El Jardin Forest Reserve is a Forest Reserve, part of the Arenal Huetar Norte Conservation Area, in the northern part of Costa Rica about 80 miles north of San José, to the north of nearby Boca Tapada and near the border with Nicaragua. There has been discussion of including this reserve as part of the proposed Maquenque National Park.
The reserve contains the remnant of a previously extensive moist forest that existed alongside the San Juan River.
