Hanging Bridges Tour at Sky Adventures Arenal
Sky Adventures is a wonderful option for a hanging bridges hike in the Arenal area.
On the hike, you will follow a well-maintained path to 2 long suspension bridges (416-496 feet/127-143 meters) and get to enjoy views of Arenal Volcano. You’ll pass through dense primary rainforest and see grand trees along the way. The viewing platform midway through the hike is a highlight. It looks out to Lake Arenal and the Monteverde Cloud Forest in the distance.
The trail is about 2.5 miles (4 km) total. The terrain is dirt and has some inclines, but overall, it’s easy to moderate in difficulty.
We highly recommend adding a guide ($5 pp) so that you can see more wildlife. On our visits, we have seen sloths, eyelash pit viper snakes, coatis (a raccoon-like animal), monkeys, toucans, and other birds. If you choose to add a guide, they will stop along the way to teach you about the ecosystem and point out wildlife.
Note that for the guided tour, you will only go as far as the viewpoint and back to reception instead of doing the whole loop (see map photo). This includes the two hanging bridges and viewpoint. The guided tour takes about 1.5-2 hours.
This tour can also be booked in combination with ziplining or a tram ride.
