Overview

On the slopes below Arenal volcano, a private canyon drops through a series of waterfalls. After a short safety briefing you descend each one on rope, the biggest around 60 metres, with the water pouring around you.

Between falls you hike through rainforest and swim across deep pools. The tour ends with a typical Costa Rican lunch and views of the volcano's perfect cone.
