La Fortuna Waterfall
The Fortuna River waterfall is located in a biological reserve with an area of 210 acres, part of the Arenal Volcano National Park and is located at 520 meters over the sea level, where there are sources of our mountains and the waters of the Fortuna River. Within this sector is the Cerro de los Perdidos, Placas de Mayo and Cerro Chato, which are based on rocky foundations of great geological value, causing in turn a lush and scenic beauty.

To observe this splendid 70 meters high waterfall, visitors must pass a path of approximately 530 steps, which offers greater security to its passage and comfortable areas for rest and hydration through a forest with native trees of the area. Once in front of the waterfall, you will find a spacious and comfortable vantage point from which you can freeze your memories using unique and previously unpublished photographs, and finally take a refreshing swim in the clear waters of the Fortuna River, with an only witness (the River Fortune waterfall).

Amazing!
Rhino1987, 27-12-2019
This tour started early in the morning (6a)and lasted pretty much all day! We made plenty of stops for sightseeing, photo-ops and shopping outside of the agreed destinations! I mention that because when children are involved it is hard to keep their attention for all day adventures - but they did! Our tour guide was Joseph and he was amazing. He took time to explain some of the history of the country and genuinely wanted to know us. He was even joined in on the activities with us! I recommend this tour for anyone who visits Costa Rica!
