Descend into the canyon and feel the power of nature's majesty.
Nothing prepares you for the sheer magnificence of the La Fortuna Waterfall. Plunging 230 feet (70 meters) from the base of the dormant Chato Volcano, this white ribbon of water crashes into an emerald pool surrounded by dense tropical rainforest.
Rainforest Explorers invites you to experience this natural wonder not just as a sightseeing stop, but as an immersive adventure. As part of our Mix & Match philosophy, this tour combines physical activity with the ultimate refreshment, making it a favorite for those seeking to connect with the raw power of the elements.
Conquer the 500 steps down into the canyon for spectacular viewpoints.
Swim in the refreshing, pristine waters at the base of the falls.
Explore the beautiful trail lined with native orchids and flora.
Capture stunning shots of the massive waterfall and lush canyon walls.
The adventure begins at the top of the canyon, where a viewing platform offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the waterfall crashing into the jungle below. From here, the journey descends via a well-maintained staircase of nearly 500 steps.
As you hike down with your Rainforest Explorers guide, you will transition through different layers of the forest, spotting butterflies and birds. Once at the bottom, the roar of the water is exhilarating. You'll have plenty of time to take photos, explore the rocky riverbank, and take a refreshing dip in the cool, crystal-clear pools downstream. The climb back up is a great workout, rewarded with fresh tropical fruit at the top.
Reward yourself! Pair this active morning with a delicious and educational afternoon at our Cacao Gallery & Chocolate Tour, or relax in the hot springs.
