From La Fortuna town a 2 miles route will takes us to the presence of a natural resource of great scenic beauty due to the hydrographic characteristics, soil formation and terrain shaped, added to a tropical rainy climate that allows the existence of an extremely diverse flora and fauna. La Fortuna Waterfall is located at the base of the now dormant Chato Volcano and near the Arenal Volcano. It is fed by the river of the same name which travels through the rainforest until it plunges over the cliff forming this magnificent waterfall. This tour begins visiting a unique open air butterfly garden, a very different concept from cover gardens, because all the landscape has being set up with nectar and host plants recreating a natural environment to attract local butterflies from the surrounding trees, every day becomes a singularity due to the visit of different species. When you visit this park, you are not only getting the chance to enjoy this marvelous natural wonder, you will be helping to support the Development Association of the community; 100% of the entrance fee goes for social projects and benefit schools, nutritional centers, the orphanage, our roads and more. Now we are ready to take the trail to the waterfall base and its crystal clear waters. Along the trail, carved into the hillside, you will observe plants, trees, and animals, which inhabit the area like sloths, toucans, orioles and more. You can choose to swim in its refreshing waters, take amazing photographs, or simply relax and take in all of the beauty of the La Fortuna Waterfall.
