ADRENALINE ADVENTURE

RAPPELLING IN COSTA RICA

In regards to rappelling, sliding down a cliff on a rope in a controlled manner can be one of the most exciting and unique ways to experience Costa Rica’s natural wonders and waterfalls. In the company of an experienced guide, this is a unique way to explore the country’s natural landscapes. Some of the most popular spots for rappelling are in places where there are waterfalls such as Los Chorros waterfalls in Alajuela and the waterfall in La Fortuna.

RAPPELLING TOUR IN HACIENDA POZO AZUL: this last is a 2000-acre family ranch that has been turned into an adventure center. Upon arrival to the site, a tractor will take you for a 15 minute ride to the edge of the Sarapiquí River canyon, where a 90-ft wall falls down to the river. This is where your rappelling adventure will take place, including a parallel line your guide will hold onto at all moments while you’re making your descent. You can descend the wall up to three times; there is a trail around the hill that will take you back up every time.

WATERFALL RAPPELLING AT LA FORTUNA: This particular region of Costa Rica is filled with waterfalls and lush forests, making it the perfect place to take advantage of a rappelling tour. Once you arrive at the site and meet your guide, you will be acquainted with all of the safety equipment and its proper use. During the tour, you will be assisted down a series of 8 waterfalls that get gradually increase in size as you go along until you meet your last challenge: the whopping 210ft stage three waterfall.

RAPPELLING TOUR IN TURRIALBA: This 3 ½ hour tour takes place in the midst of Turrialba’s rainforest in Calle Chirraca. The tour begins with an introduction from your guides who will familiarize you with the safety equipment and teach you how to use it. Once the adventure starts, you will find yourself descending down the path of a river and along four waterfalls. The tour continues while you zip across 4 canopy cables, descend two tall trees and walk across a 132 ft long hanging bridge.
