Tour Description

Arenal Hanging Bridges

Did you know that 90% of all the organisms in Costa Rica’s rainforests and cloud forests are found atop the gigantic trees? Back in the day, biologists would use ropes and pulleys to climb up to the canopy of these trees. Some trees so tall it was almost impossible to explore! The Real Deal Tours offers a guided Arenal Hanging Bridges hike at Mistico Park for you to enjoy and explore the beautiful canopy of these gigantic trees. Best of all, the fully accessible trails mean multigenerational families can all explore together!


Mistico Hanging Bridges Park

Why is the Mistico Hanging Bridges Park so special? At the Mistico Park, you will get an elevated perspective of Costa Rica's rainforest by walking across secure and highly engineered hanging bridges. The 2-mile route includes 16 bridges total in the rainforest canopy. Six of the bridges are the traditional suspension bridges found throughout many parts of Costa Rica. However, 10 of them are more ridged framed bridges made of concrete and protective railings allowing even electric wheelchairs to cross safely and comfortably! The park offers lovely facilities and stunning views of the Arenal Volcano as the backdrop too. That is why it is one of the most popular hanging bridge tours in Costa Rica!

Guided Arenal Hanging Bridges Tour

If the park is so amazing, why go with a guide? Taking a knowledgeable Naturalist guide is the key to the best Arenal hanging bridges experience. As you navigate the trials, your guide will be able to spot all the wildlife hidden in the rainforest canopy for you. They will tell you the history of the region and describe all the flora and its importance in the incredible rainforest ecosystem. There is so much to learn, and the rainforest ecology is absolutely fascinating. Trust us, it is just not the same when you try to wander the hanging bridges on your own.
