Canopy Zipline

Canopy zipline tours are probably Costa Rica's most “classic” adventure, and an absolute must-do during your vacation! Recreational zipilning was actually invented right here, in the Monteverde Cloud Forest. Monteverde still offers some of the best zipline courses in the country (often with Tarzan swings and Superman lines included!). However,  due to the amazing popularity of canopy zipline tours, you can now find fantastic options almost in any area.

Part of the appeal of ziplining is that you don't need any experience or special skills to participate. There are great “beginner-friendly” courses for children as young as 4 years old, and professional guides will make you feel safe while you zip through the trees. This makes a perfect adventure for the whole family!

One of the best places to go ziplining is also the Arenal Volcano area. This is Costa Rica's Adventure Capital and offers many different courses. You'll be sure to find the one that best suits your needs there! If you are visiting the Central Pacific, you'll also find awesome zipline tours around Manuel Antonio and Jacó. The beauty of the rainforest will make this an unforgettable experience.

There is even a great little zipline course in Nuevo Arenal! It's a smaller park than what you would find in more touristy areas, so the service is very personalized. You'll have a chance to learn about the local eco-system, enjoy amazing views, and go on an adventure that is perfect even for beginners.
