El Silencio Horseback Riding & La Fortuna Waterfall

Ride along easy, pastoral trails that gradually ascend through local farmlands and discover a variety of ferns, bromeliads, and woodlands along the way.

As you reach the Silencio Observation Point, you will have a chance to take in the views of the volcano and enjoy the scenery.

After, visit La Fortuna Waterfall. Grab some photos of the 70-meter cascade from the panoramic lookout point before trekking down to the base of the waterfall, which is equally beautiful. Wear your swimsuit and take a refreshing dip in the swimming hole. Careful on the rocks!
