Waterfalls and Wildlife: Day trip from La Fortuna

One of Costa Rica’s most iconic waterfalls, where rainforest paths lead to a dramatic plunge into emerald waters. La Fortuna Waterfall offers a rewarding rainforest experience that blends scenery, movement, and refreshment. A well-maintained stairway descends through dense greenery, gradually revealing the full height of the 70-meter cascade as it drops into a deep natural pool below. At the base, visitors can cool off in calmer river sections downstream or linger on the rocks to take in the mist and surrounding jungle. Upper viewpoints provide sweeping perspectives over the valley and forest.
