This extreme canyoning experience in Golfito is a strong activity for those who want to physically enter Costa Rica’s tropical nature. The adventure begins with a walk of about 30 minutes on steep forest terrain, with good chances of spotting monkeys and some frogs. Once at the top, after a refreshing dip in the river and a full briefing on the harness and rappel techniques, the descent begins.

The route links rappels along waterfalls, passages between boulders and logs, jumps and swims in natural pools, ending with a final rappel in a narrow canyon surrounded by a huge rock face. Canyoning has the unique power to turn the landscape into action terrain: you no longer simply look at the forest, you cross it, touch it and descend with it. The 3-hour format promises an intense adventure, ideal for active travellers and thrill seekers.
