Aprox duration 3hThis Isn’t Just a Canopy Tour. This Is Flying.
This is not just ziplining—this is your wings in action.
Step into the thrill of the Extreme Canopy in Monteverde, Costa Rica’s longest canopy experience, where you're not just watching the cloud forest—you’re soaring through it. Designed for adrenaline lovers and bold explorers, this is one of those once-in-a-lifetime adventures that you’ll be telling everyone about.
What to Expect
16 Ziplines Through the Cloud Forest
You’ll take flight on 16 different cables, some short and sweet, others long and breathtaking, as you zip through lush, misty treetops. In total, you’ll cover more than 4 kilometers (over 2.5 miles) of high-speed adventure with heights reaching up to 150 meters (nearly 500 feet). The forest rushes by, the wind fills your helmet—and suddenly, you're not hiking the cloud forest... you're gliding over it.
Tarzan Swing: Leap Into the Air
This isn’t your average swing.
Strap in, step off the platform, and free-fall into a massive arc that swings you over the forest like a pendulum. It's a scream, a laugh, a wow, all rolled into one. Whether you want to face your fears or feed your thrill, this is your moment.
Superman Ziplines: Above and Below the Mountain
Now for the main event: the Superman zipline, 1,030 meters long (over 3,300 feet). Face down, arms stretched out—you’ll fly like your favorite superhero across a vast green canyon. And just when you think it's over, there's a twist: the Underground Superman, a one-of-a-kind zipline through a tunnel inside the mountain. Two words: unforgettable adrenaline.
