Rock Climbing at Pico Blanco

For the most adventurous, this destination includes hiking and climbing. If you are tired of the city this will be a perfect getaway for you, a moment to do physical activity and introspection.

The mountain is not friendly with beginners, be prepared to carry your own food and water.

As any other park, it is the visitor’s responsibility to pick up after yourself.

Windsurfing en Lago Arenal

Lake Arenal is a warm destination, which will make a perfect vacation for any thrill seekers. Besides windsurfing with an amazing view of the Arenal volcano is any adventurer’s dream, or photographer. You’ll be in direct contact with nature here.

And if you are not such a fan of windsurfing you can also take a ride by boat through the lake.

Paragliding en Puntarenas

Paragliding is a fantastic experience, feeling free as a bird, and enjoying a different view of the Puntarenas we’re used to see from floor height.

It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner, instructors will rent you the gear and go with you so you enjoy the ride.

Almost everybody has dreamt of flying, but very few managed to master it. Be one of them and make your dreams come true!
