Itinerary and highlights

You can delve into the wonders of nature located within the fabulous infrastructure of the
ecological project near the Arenal Volcano. There you will find wide trails and its main
attraction, the hanging bridges. We will venture along more than 3.2 km in which you will pass
over 16 bridges (6 hanging), where you will see a great variety of wildlife and lush vegetation
that this primary tropical forest also preserves the spectacular view of the treetops. Without a
doubt, an adventure that you cannot miss.

To observe this splendid 70-meter-high waterfall, the visitor must overcome a path of
approximately 530 steps, through a forest with trees native to the area, where the springs of our
mountains and the waters of the Fortuna River emerge, originating in turn lush vegetation and
scenic beauty.
Once in front of the waterfall, you will find a large and comfortable viewpoint from which you
can freeze your memories through unpublished and unique photographs, and finally you can
take a refreshing swim in the crystalline waters of the Fortuna River.

Typical Lunch include in the tour

Let's venture into the foothills of Costa Rica's most famous active volcano, where, as you walk
around the site, you will have many different trail options. They all surround the base of the
impressive volcano, offering you different points of view. In our opinion, one of the best views
of the Arenal Volcano is from the El Silencio Viewpoint. This series of easy to moderate trails
lead to a very high viewpoint. Here you will feel as if you were face to face with the cone-shaped
peak of Arenal, there we can observe the variety of fauna that this wonderful site houses,
especially monkeys, toucans, sloths and much more.
To finish this incredible activity, you will be able to choose between the relaxing hot springs in
the area and enjoy a well-deserved rest accompanied by a pleasant cocktail and, of course, a
spectacular view of the Arenal Volcano.
