Description

If you don’t have much time to spend in La Fortuna or you simply want to make the most of your time in the area, this is a suitable alternative to show you the main attractions located around the dramatic volcano.

There is no doubt that the rainforests permeated by light are one of the highlights, and you will have plenty of opportunities to spend time surrounded by emerald vegetation and colorful fauna. On the Arenal Hanging Bridges, you will walk through the forest, along the trails and bridges that allow you to see plants and animals from high above. Or you can choose to visit the Ecocentro Danaus instead. This is a reserve of naturally regenerated forest, and the result of sustained conservation efforts. No matter if you’re trained or not, you are ready for an unforgettable immersive experience in this exotic forest, where you can observe specific fauna all year long.

At around 11:30, you will arrive at the second place of interest: La Fortuna Waterfall, famous for its height of 60 meters (197 feet). Here you can take a blissful swim in its cool waters or capture its beauty with your camera.

At the lunchtime (1:30 pm), you will stop at a nice restaurant, near La Fortuna, for a mouthwatering culinary experience, trying five or more choices “a la carte”. Around 3:00 pm, you are prepared to head towards the incredible Arenal Volcano National Park to hike on the trail called Lava slides, to the closest possible safe point. If the skies are clear, the views of the Arenal Lake, the secondary forest, and the areas devastated by previous eruptions will be truly impressive and worthy of your best shots. In the evening, you will make your last stop at a relaxing hot spring of your choice. (When you make your reservation, you will can opt for one of the six, with or without dinner.)
