Fortuna River Waterfall Tour |
This beautiful waterfall set in the rainforest near the edge
of Arenal Volcano National Park is managed
by a local community development group (Association de Desarollo
de Fortuna) It is about a 1 hour walk from
downtown Fortuna. It is accessible by a gravel
road, horseback tours from downtown La Fortuna
are offered.
The hike down the canyon is slippery but you
will be rewarded with a natural pool under the falls, perfect
for a dip on a hot day. There is a small restaurant / shop
at the entrance.

This unforgettable adventure begins with an hour horseback riding.
A local guide will join you during the trip, combining the ride with an exciting hike down to the swimming hole.
There you will find huge rocks where you can sit and relax before hiking back up. The spectacular waterfall and the lush forest give a sample at the rich nature that abounds in this zone. We recommend this tour for people in good physical condition. Take a bathing suit, towel, long pants, and hiking shoes. |
