ONE OF THE TOP 10 HIKES IN COSTA RICA
Wondering if you can find tigers in Costa Rica? The lush forest known as "Los Bajos del Tigre" got its name from early hunters, who often encountered the magnificent Jaguar, the largest cat in the Americas and third-largest in the world, referred to as "tiger." This history inspired the name "El Tigre Waterfalls."
We've adapted to the changing times, especially during the COVID-19 emergency. Now, you can safely explore this beautiful place without the need for a guide or group. Simply drive yourself to El Tigre Waterfalls (use Google Maps or Waze, searching for "El Tigre Waterfalls" via the road named "Los Olivos"), and you'll find safe and free parking available. No 4x4 vehicle is required.
Upon your arrival at our small reception and coffee spot, we'll provide you with a map, detailed instructions, and essential safety tips for your self-guided tour. The well-marked trail is easy to navigate, taking you past four impressive waterfalls and nine bridges, including hanging and natural tree bridges, covering a 8km intermediate-level hike.
Towards the end of the trail, you'll encounter our guides with horses, the only guided portion of the tour (this is optional), lasting approximately 35 minutes. No prior experience is necessary. As a bonus, a delectable typical lunch is included (full package only), with multiple options to choose from, including vegetarian dishes.
We offer various payment methods, including cash and card payments, on-site. To ensure your spot, make a reservation in advance. You can easily book and pay through our website or via WhatsApp at + (506) 8391-9625. When reserving, please provide your full name, the number of people in your group, and your desired tour date. We are open every day from 7:30 am to 1:30 pm.
