Arenal Volcano Hike & La Fortuna Waterfall

Embark on an Epic Adventure:

Conquer Volcano Trails and Discover Cascading Wonders at La Fortuna Waterfall!

We’ll head through the jungle, hiking through well-groomed, easy trails that skirt the base of the Arenal Volcano. This route takes you to the Mirador el Silencio from where you can admire the views of the nearby Arenal Volcano and especially its ancient lava flows. Now these lava flows have converted into rock, which descend the slope of the volcano to the valley.  Your eagle-eyed naturalist guide will point out different species of flora and fauna and teach you about Costa Rica’s nature, culture and history, including information about the volcanic explosion of 1968.

After your adventure at the National Park, you will go to lunch at the El Salto Hunters & Gatherers restaurant for a full all you can eat buffet. Then head to the La Fortuna Waterfall! When you reach the entrance, you will have time to change into your bathing suit in case you want to cool off under the waterfall. This is sure to be a good workout as there are 500 steps to get to the down to the waterfall, and 500 to get back up! When you reach the bottom, you’ll have an opportunity to take lots of pictures and swim in the cool waters of one of the largest and most breathtaking waterfalls in Arenal and then head back to your hotel.
