Get ready for a 2-hour tour of pure adventure and adrenaline! Our experience begins at our private farm. After a safety briefing and practice ride. We start by riding through muddy trails, crossing small rivers and streams, and driving through natural puddles—all surrounded by beautiful rainforest. The terrain is fun and a bit challenging, with bumps, mud, and uneven paths that make the ride exciting.
We continue along scenic rainforest trails to the Arenal River area, our turnaround point. On the way back, we stop for fresh fruit and light snacks before continuing the adventure.
One of the best things about an ATV adventure in La Fortuna is that every day can offer something different. On a sunny day, you can enjoy beautiful views of the Arenal Volcano and the lush green rainforest. When it rains, the trails become muddier, splashier, and even more adventurous. Rain or shine, the experience is all about getting out into nature, enjoying the trails, and having fun on an ATV!
