Canyoning / Waterfall Rappelling in Costa Rica

Put Your Harness On and Go!

Did you ever want to go over a waterfall in a barrel? How about rappelling down one. This adrenaline-fueled activity is not for the everyday armchair traveler, but for those who are willing to go for the ultimate thrill.

How and Where to do it?

Well, first and foremost you need a waterfall and a tour. The best ones are located in:

• Arenal / La Fortuna
• Grecia / Sarchi
• Manuel Antonio
• Puerto Jimenez and Drake Bay on the Osa Peninsula.
  
• Turrialba - Puente Vigas Canyon: combines canopy tour with canyoning (rappelling down four waterfalls, four canopy zip line cables, rappel down two tall trees and walk across a 132 foot hanging bridge). Contact us to arrange an adventure.
  

The next thing you need is a professional guide. You'll hike into rain forests where a series of pre-arranged rappels descend waterfalls towering up to 300 feet and traverse scenic trails that will take you from one rappel to another. And at the end of the day, you can go for a swim in the pool at the base of the waterfall.

Sign up for your adventure today. All tours include experienced guides, equipment, snacks and transportation. Wear water sandals and quick-dry clothing.
