Arenal Canopy Zipline
Twelve cables over the Pino Blanco and Fortuna waterfalls
Overview
Arenal Mundo Aventura is a 240-hectare private reserve wrapped around the Catarata Rio Fortuna canyon, and its canopy circuit is the only one in La Fortuna that flies directly over two waterfalls. You clip in at the top of the ridge and cross a series of long cables strung above Pino Blanco and the 200-foot Fortuna waterfall, with the cone of Arenal Volcano filling the horizon behind you. Certified guides run the whole circuit, brake every landing for you, and keep the pace relaxed enough that first-timers never feel rushed. Between cables there are wooden platforms where the guides stop to point out toucans, howler monkeys and the reserve's orchid collection.
