Description

To observe this splendid 70-meter-high waterfall, the visitor must overcome a path of approximately 530 steps, through a forest with trees native to the area, where the springs of our mountains and the waters of the Fortuna River emerge, originating in turn lush vegetation and scenic beauty. Once in front of the waterfall, you will find a large and comfortable viewpoint from which you can freeze your memories through unpublished and unique photographs, and finally you can take a refreshing swim in the crystalline waters of the Fortuna River.

Wonderful Tour and Amazing Guides

We had an amazing experience with Monica and Alexandro during our tour in La Fortuna, Costa Rica! Monica was absolutely wonderful , very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the entire day. She made the experience fun and enjoyable, and we learned so much about the beautiful nature and wildlife of Costa Rica. We visited the national park, saw the beautiful waterfall, enjoyed a great hike, and then continued with a wildlife tour where we were lucky enough to see sloths and many other amazing animals. Everything was well organized and made for a truly memorable experience. Alexandro was also very friendly, helpful, and professional, and we really appreciated everything he did to make our day comfortable and enjoyable. We strongly recommend Monica and Alexandro to anyone visiting La Fortuna. If you want to experience the beautiful waterfalls, nature, and wildlife of Costa Rica with wonderful people, definitely book a tour with them!

North Adventures tour of Hanging Bridges and La Fortuna waterfall ROCKED!

We visited the Hanging Bridges and La Fortuna waterfall with Monica (tour guide) and Steven (driver) and finished up with a delicious lunch! The whole experience was amazing. Monica was an incredible tour guide - knowledgeable, upbeat, and lots of fun. Steven went above and beyond to stop when he saw parrots and a sloth so we could all experience it. Hanging bridges were easy for most but be prepared on the waterfall as it is 500 steep steps down then back up. Would definitely use North Adventires again!
