Mistico Arenal Hanging Bridges is one of the most visited tourism attractions in La Fortuna within a 250-hectare (618 acre) reserve of primary forest. It is located between the edges of two types of forest, highland and lowland, and integrates both. Visitors who love nature can enjoy 15 bridges from 5 to 100 meters long, friendly design along 3.2 km rain forest circuit of interpretive trails built with paving blocks to prevent slipping. The bridges are built of aluminum, galvanized steel, and concrete, to ensure maximum security for the visitors and were designed by structural engineers with the most demanding safety margins in the world. Guided by a naturalist, who through the natural history will open for you the doors of a fascinating and colorful Tropical Rain Forest world. The imposing vistas of the Volcano from the hanging bridges over the forest, make a perfect combination for an unforgettable experience.
