🎉 Heading to La Fortuna soon? You’re in for a treat! 🌋

From July 24th to August 2nd, our local community is celebrating the Festival Despertar del Arenal—a week filled with culture, history, and family-friendly entertainment right here in town.

This annual event marks the historical date of July 29, 1968, when the Arenal Volcano woke up after centuries of silence. While it changed the history of our town forever, today it stands as a tribute to community resilience, culture, and life in La Fortuna.

Here’s a quick look at what’s happening:

✨ Live music & artistic performances
🎭 Theater & street parades (pasacalles)
🧘 Wellness experiences & workshops
🎨 Local cultural & educational activities

If you're visiting La Fortuna during these dates, it's a great opportunity to immerse yourself in local Costa Rican tradition and art! 🇨🇷

Two completely different experiences. One unforgettable day.

First: you float down the P***s Blancas River on a gentle wildlife safari. Optional paddles. No rapids. Just you, the current, and monkeys swinging through the trees, sloths hanging overhead, toucans cutting across the sky.

Then: La Fortuna Waterfall. A 70-meter cascade dropping into a pool of cold, clear water at the base of a canyon. You swim in it.

This combo was built for families, couples, and anyone who wants the full La Fortuna experience without rushing.

✅ P***s Blancas River float — monkeys, sloths, toucans, caimans
✅ Coffee & Chocolate tastings
✅ La Fortuna Waterfall visit + swim
✅ Lunch in traditional restaurant
✅ Hotel pickup included | 7.5 hours total
✅ Adults from $133.07 | Kids (3–11) from $66.53

You're standing above the rainforest canopy. The wind moves the bridge. A toucan crosses 30 meters below you.

The Arenal Hanging Bridges at Mistico Park puts you inside the ecosystem — not watching it from a road. 3.2 km of trail through pristine jungle. 16 bridges, 6 of them suspension bridges high above the canopy. Arenal Volcano rising in the background on clear days.

Your naturalist guide knows where to look. The sloths, the monkeys, the frogs — they're there, you just need to know where.

✅ Expert naturalist guide (8–12 guests max per guide)
✅ Tropical fruit tasting at the end
✅ Hotel pickup + water refill included

That's the Balsa River — 10 km of Class II & III whitewater through Costa Rica's jungle, with monkeys watching from the canopy and toucans flying overhead. No experience needed. Just show up ready.

Between rapids, calm stretches open up for swimming. Midway, a tropical fruit break by the river. When it's over, a full traditional Costa Rican lunch is waiting.

✅ 10 km of Class II & III rapids
✅ ~2 hours on the water
✅ No experience required
✅ Bilingual certified guides + full safety gear

Walking on lava from a 1968 eruption hits different.

The El Silencio Trail takes you right to the base of Arenal Volcano — through primary rainforest, across ancient lava fields, out to panoramic views of a shimmering green lagoon and Arenal Lake. Your guide tells the story of the eruption that reshaped this entire region. You'll feel it underfoot.

This isn't a lookout point. You're in the volcano's shadow.

✅ Rainforest + lava field terrain
✅ Expert naturalist guide (groups of 10–12 max)
✅ Stunning Arenal Lake views
✅ Fresh fruit + water included
✅ Hotel pickup | Ages 0+ | 4 hours
✅ Adults from $71.73 | Kids (4–11) from $35.87 | Under 4 FREE

You're flying 1,000 meters at 70 km/h — directly in front of La Fortuna Waterfall.

Not behind it. Not near it. In front of it. Midair.

The La Fortuna Waterfall Extreme Zipline isn't a "nice zip through the trees." It's 7 long, high-speed cables over an open canyon — the kind of rush that makes your brain go quiet and your smile go wide.

✅ Speeds up to 70 km/h
✅ Canyon crossings at 120 meters high
✅ Hotel pickup included
✅ Cultural stop at a Maleku village
