Description

THE FORTUNA WATERFALL The Fortuna River Waterfall is a natural area and its main objective to ensure the well-being and growth of La Fortuna community, through the work execution of road infrastructure, environment, education, promotion of sport and culture, community beautification and strengthening of public safety; projects that are possible to run thanks to funds raised by the visit of each tourist to this natural space. It is located at 520 meters over the sea level, where there are sources of our mountains and the waters of the Fortuna River. Within this sector is the Cerro de los Perdidos, Placas de Mayo and Cerro Chato, which are based on rocky foundations of great geological value, causing in turn a lush and scenic beauty. To observe this splendid 70 meters high waterfall, visitors must pass a path of approximately 530 steps, which offers greater security to its passage and comfortable areas for rest and hydration through a forest with native trees of the area. Once in front of the waterfall, you will find a spacious and comfortable vantage point from which you can freeze your memories using unique and previously unpublished photographs, and finally take a refreshing swim in the clear waters of the Fortuna River, with an only witness (the River Fortune waterfall). Opting for a guided tour enhances your visit, allowing you to discover the rich tapestry of animal life and ecosystem diversity under the guidance of experts. Our guides share their knowledge on animal behavior, habitat, and conservation, offering a deeper understanding of the natural world. By choosing a guided tour, you also support the dedicated individuals who work tirelessly to share the beauty of La Fortuna with visitors from around the globe. Your visit contributes directly to conservation efforts, ensuring that La Fortuna's natural wonders are preserved for future generations. This experience isn't just a tour—it's a chance to be part of a larger effort to protect and cherish our planet's natural heritage. Prepare for Your Journey To make the most of your experience, we recommend bringing: Long pants and hiking shoes for the trek A bathing suit and towel for your swim Water shoes to navigate the pools Insect repellent and a raincoat or umbrella for comfort A camera and binoculars to capture the stunning sights
