HANGING BRIDGES
This attraction is only a walking path away from The Lost Iguana Resort. It is an easy 2 mile trail through 618 acres of virgin rain forest. The trail loops around and boasts a number of impressive bridges, ranging from 16 to 330 feet long. Not for those who are afraid of heights! Early morning and evening guided tours available by appointment only. They have a fast food restaurant, reasonable prices, and incredible panoramic view of the lake and volcano.
LA FORTUNA WATERFALL
If your legs are in conditions for a steep climb, this is a beautiful waterfall that should not be missed. It is a 15 minute climb down to the base of the waterfall and a 30 minute climb back up. The park is now discouraging swimming at the base of the fall, hikers can go a little further down the river where it widens and is a beautiful, clear, shallow spot for bathing.
TABACON
There are several mineral baths in the Arenal area, but Tabacon is the only one that is not pumped to create pools. Tabacon has a mineral river heated by the volcano to nearly 100 degrees. The river has been divided into a number of separate pools and waterfalls where guests can wander and soak in beautifully landscaped hot pools.
SKY TRAM CANOPY TOUR
Our most popular adventure tour!! Take a tram up through the Canopy and see amazing views of Arenal Lake and the volcano. You can opt to return on the Tram or take the zip lines down. There are 2 short zip lines at the top, so those faint of heart may chicken out. But don't! It's an adventure of a lifetime to fly through the jungle and it will be a memory you'll never forget. Highly recommended.
