You feel the tractor first — a low, steady thrum that pulls you up a dirt track through a swath of green. The forest closes in: leaves drip with recent rain, insects call, and somewhere above the canopy cables hum with people flying between trees. This combo tour moves fast: a tractor safari to a 200‑foot El Encanto waterfall, a 1.2‑mile series of ziplines, and an ATV run across private parkland that opens onto river flats and small cascades.

You feel the tractor first — a low, steady thrum that pulls you up a dirt track through a swath of green. The forest closes in: leaves drip with recent rain, insects call, and somewhere above the canopy cables hum with people flying between trees. This combo tour moves fast: a tractor safari to a 200‑foot El Encanto waterfall, a 1.2‑mile series of ziplines, and an ATV run across private parkland that opens onto river flats and small cascades.
The terrain sits on the Central Pacific slope of Costa Rica, where volcanic soils feed dense rainforest and fast streams carve pocket waterfalls. The property’s 850 acres offer a compact cross‑section of local ecology — secondary forest, riparian corridors and open riding fields — and the guides who run these private tours know both the landscape and the culture of Puntarenas province, often pointing out native hardwoods and local farming history as you move between activities.
Practically, expect about 3–4 hours on site: tractor ride to the falls (photo and short swim options), a guided zipline circuit over canopy and ravine, then ATVs on groomed trails. Safety gear and a bilingual guide are provided; a moderate level of fitness helps with getting on and off vehicles and negotiating uneven ground. Bring closed‑toe shoes, quick‑dry clothing, a small towel and insect repellent. Plan for sun or sudden tropical showers — mornings are cooler and drier. The experience balances adrenaline with easy natural immersion: rivers dare you closer, the waterfall’s spray resets the day, and the evening drive back often leaves the ocean horizon in view.

This area of the Central Pacific developed as small‑scale agriculture and logging land before ecotourism grew; many private parks now preserve corridors of secondary forest and river routes.
Tours run on private property with limits on group size to reduce impact; use of biodegradable sunscreen and staying on designated trails helps protect riparian zones and sensitive forest patches.
The Park at Ocean Ranch operates guided outdoor trips and adventures with an emphasis on safety, stewardship, and memorable experiences.
