About

This is a private horseback riding tour. Two side-by-side waterfalls cascade into a beautiful sky blue mineral water pool at Chorreras Waterfalls. It is an excellent place for a cooling swim, or just to enjoy the lovely surroundings. A tiny, shallow canyon of volcanic rock rings the waterfalls and pool, creating an intimate and private tropical oasis.

Our Costa Rica horseback riding tour involves a 30-minute ride each way on scenic forest trails from Hacienda Guachipelín. You will have plenty of time to relax at the waterfall before you ride back to the hotel.

All of our horseback rides follow mostly forest trails, with very little time on transited ranch roads. Tours are guided by one of our experienced ranch cowboys.
