About this experience
The tour begins with an introduction to the adventure park and a brief lesson on ziplining through the canopy. After the safety briefing, you will board a Jungle Bus that takes you to the top, where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the tropical canopy, La Fortuna waterfall, Pino Blanco waterfall, and Arenal Volcano.
There is a 15-minute hike accompanied by a highly trained guide. The guide will explain the area's significance and help you spot any wildlife along the way.
Upon arriving at the ziplines, you will first complete three shorter cables to familiarize yourself with the equipment and the sensation of ziplining. There are 12 ziplines, totaling 3.5 kilometers. The longest cable, measuring 980 meters, spans the famous La Fortuna Waterfall, and two additional cables cross over the Pino Blanco Waterfall. After completing the ziplines and visiting the Maleku Indians, enjoy a 20-minute horseback ride through pastureland and secondary forest, returning to the entrance.
