Located in the city of Heredia, Canopy Adventure is to 45 minutes from the capital and to 30 minutes from the Juan Santamaría International Airport. Within the national park Braulio Carrilo, the third national but great park of Costa Rica, Canopy Adventure is in the only rainy-cloudy forest of the Central Valley under the skirts of Barva Volcano.

We suspended 11 platforms, ten of them on top of gigantic Oak trees (200-400 yrs old) very common in this forest and one on a gigantic Cypress tree, very common in this area.
We connected the platforms with steel cables, making 80 to 650 feet long zi lines, on which you will be crossing several times the canyon and waterfalls of the Porrosatí river, flying up to 180 feet above the ground. The adventure also takes you through this protected old-grown forest on aerial trails, walking through the hollow trunk of a Ficus tree, with beautiful views of the Central Valley and the Barva Volcano. The Canopy is part of an 1500 acre big private property, used as a milk farm, grow of Cypress wood for harvesting and orchids for local sale. The almost 700 acres old grown- forests,of which the adventure take part, are under protection, on an conservation program to "sell oxygen and save the forest".
This half-day tour takes from 1 1⁄2 to 3 hours depending on the size of the group.
