Highlights
  • Ruta Nacional Treciaria 702 - Begin your extreme jungle tour on top of a deep canyon cliff and take an adrenaline-pumping rappel down an 80-foot waterfall. Listen to the crashing water and watch your guide’s hand signals for instructions as you descend. Once you get the hang of it, bounce off the rock wall on your way down. When you’re near the bottom, let go! Splash into a deep pool of transparent water and swim to shore. Follow your guides as you descend the canyon and jump into a series of pools of crystal clear blue water below.

You’ll conquer four waterfall jumps, ranging from 10 to 30 feet, calling for different types of leaps and landings, with more pools of water waiting for you.

Soaked but exhilarated, swim to the rocky shore after your final waterfall jump and then enjoy a tropical fruit fiesta. We then head to our headquarters at the El Salto waterfall, you’ll tear into a hearty lunch featuring sumptuous local fare and afterward, doze off during the ride back to your hotel.

Amazing Waterfall Adventure - We did this excursion in February 2024 and had such an amazing time! Our crew was very friendly and helped encourage us to complete the jumps. Despite being the one to choose this adventure I definitely psyched myself out on some of the bigger drops and got scared but the Desafio team made sure I felt safe and had the experience I was hoping for. That being said, there are options to skip the jumps if it's truly not for you. Would 100% recommend to anyone traveling to LaFortuna and would book additional excursions with the company if we end up back there in the future.

Amazing thrill and true outdoor experience - This was such a wonderful experience. I highly recommend it if you are looking for some good action. This was a true adventure in the forrest, while we had all the right gear and it was always safe, it was not a "curated experience", it had nice walks, repel and an incredible 30-feet jump at the end (optional). My wife and 12 y/o son were able to do it but it takes that adventurous spirit

Unique compared to other repel tours - Had an absolute blast with this crew. Im from Colorado and a big outdoors sports person. I was worried this experience was going to be like the South Park episode about ziplining. They beat my expectations for sure. Theres at least one repel, and one cliff jump (the jump is optional, so dont let it scare you from booking with these guys) that should pucker you up regardless of how experienced you are. It’ll get your blood pumping. Unless you’re already dead inside… Besides a great crew, one thing that sets this one apart is that the crew told me the course is on private property, and they’re the only company partnered with the family that owns it. Could be bs, but I dont think I gave any indication beforehand that let him know that was the kind of answer I wanted. In other words, he had no reason to lie about it. That means more uniqueness in my opinion, and more importantly, an experience that doesnt have a bunch of other tour groups around. Highly recommend. The area absolutely engulfs you in beauty.

Adrenaline seekers paradise - What can I say? This was all of the adrenaline I was looking for. Suspended above gorgeous, waterfalls and stunning scenery. Climbing and repelling down beautiful rock faces, this is truly a once in a lifetime experience. Jumping from a 30 foot platform into a waterfall was the highlight of this adventure. I highly recommend this for any thrill seekers looking to get a rush.
