Highlights

Experience the raw, untamed beauty of Costa Rica with an authentic trekking adventure to the Vuelta del Cañón waterfall in Bajos del Toro. Your journey begins at a dairy farm, where your visit directly supports the local community and the preservation of their private natural reserve. As we leave the farm, we hike through stunning highland pastures that offer a unique vantage point nestled between the majestic Juan Castro Blanco and Poás Volcano National Parks. This is a true naturalist’s expedition where your expert guide will reveal the secrets of the cloud forest, birds and wildlife hidden within the canopy. Be prepared for a genuine challenge; this "raw trekking" experience takes you through humid, muddy trails and requires crossing the creek several times, keeping you fully immersed in the elements. If you are looking for a rugged, off-the-beaten-path adventure that rewards your effort with one of the most breathtaking hidden waterfalls in the country, this is the tour for you.
