The well-maintained trail system stretches approximately 2.5 kilometers (1.5 miles) and features five impressive hanging bridges, including one that reaches nearly 300 meters (984 feet) in length. These bridges allow you to safely walk through the forest canopy, offering a unique perspective rarely experienced from the ground.

After your cloud forest adventure, you will enjoy a typical Costa Rican lunch before taking the Coffee experience. Later, you’ll continue with an authentic Coffee, Chocolate, and sugarcane tour, where you’ll discover why Costa Rica is famous worldwide for its premium agricultural products.

During the coffee experience, you’ll learn the fascinating history of Costa Rican coffee and how coffee cherries are cultivated and harvested.
