Your journey kicks off with complimentary transportation from Jaco, Los Suenos, or Playa Hermosa. Relax and enjoy the scenic ride to the private reserve, where the excitement begins. Upon arrival, a tractor will transport you deeper into the park to the basecamp, surrounded by rolling hills and primary rainforest. Here, certified guides will provide expert instruction, ensuring you’re fully prepared for the adventure ahead. After being fitted into state-of-the-art safety gear, you’ll set out on a 25-minute hike through the jungle to the rappelling starting point.
The journey to the waterfall’s crest is as thrilling as the descent itself. With expert guides leading the way, you’ll navigate rugged jungle trails that demand a good level of physical fitness. This 25-minute hike is no casual stroll, but it rewards adventurers with an up-close encounter with Costa Rica’s incredible biodiversity. The jungle comes alive with playful monkey chatter and the vibrant calls of exotic birds, creating an immersive and invigorating experience. As you ascend the mountainside, you’ll catch glimpses of unspoiled rainforest beauty, culminating in your arrival at the top of El Encanto Waterfall. Here, your guides will position you for the first of two controlled rappels, a heart-pounding descent down the stone face of the waterfall, finishing in the tranquil pool at its base.

The town of Jaco itself is bordered by beautiful primary and secondary rainforest mountains, however these rainforests are private reserves, and are typically only accessible by way of excursions, such as Jaco ATV tours or canopy zipline adventures. The closest rainforests for hiking are Carara National Park, which is located about 15.5 miles north of Jaco, and Manuel Antonio National Park, approximately 37 miles to the south of Jaco. Organized guided hikes or adventure tours are always the best way to explore the rainforests in Costa Rica. [View Full Blog Post]
