Combining a visit to La Fortuna Waterfall with a volcano hike is a fantastic way to experience the natural beauty and adventure of the La Fortuna area in Costa Rica.

La Fortuna Waterfall

This destination is a must-see when visiting Arenal. The combination of lush vegetation, crystal-clear water, and the stunning 229-foot (65-meter) waterfall creates a truly breathtaking scene. Be sure to bring your swimsuit, as this is a fantastic opportunity to swim in refreshing natural waters.

To reach the pool beneath the falls, you'll descend a trail with 498 steps. The climb back up typically takes between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on your fitness level. It’s a rewarding experience well worth the effort, offering both natural beauty and a refreshing swim.

Volcano Hike

Doing a hike should definitely be on your must-do list while in the area. Known for its iconic cone shape, Arenal Volcano has been an active volcano for decades, though it is currently in a resting phase with only occasional smoke visible from its peak. This makes it an excellent time to explore the park and learn about its history from a knowledgeable local guide.

A walk around the base of the volcano offers stunning views and the chance to see ancient lava flows up close. The tour is family-friendly and suitable for visitors of all ages, ensuring a memorable experience for everyone.

What to Bring

Hiking shoes, bathing suit, comfortable clothes: shorts, t-shirts, tank tops. Change of clothing in case you want to swin at the refreshing waterfall, insect repellent, sunscreen, raincoat and towel

What's included

Local bilingual guide, entrances fees, seasonal fruits, costa rican typical lunch.
