Pacuare
One day, Class IV white-water rafting
Winding
deep inside of one of Costa Rica's most impressive primordial rainforests,
the Pacuare River, officially declared a Wild and Scenic River,
offers some of the finest white water rafting in Latin America.
You will traverse 18 miles of remote and scenic waters that course
through a wilderness of dense vegetation, plummeting waterfalls
and steep gorges that rise above the riverbanks. The thick undergrowth
provides shelter for jaguars, ocelots, monkeys, sloths, and numerous
other species of animals and birds.
After picking you up at your hotel, we'll pass through the site
of one of Costa Rica's most lovely rainforests, the Braulio
Carrillo National Park. Leaving the park, we'll stop briefly
for a delicious breakfast before continuing on to the put-in at
Tres Equis, travel time approximately 3 hours. There, professional
guides and the rafting equipment will be waiting.
After some brief security instructions, we'll start out on this
incredible Pacuare River rafting journey. The journey is filled
with adventure and excitement as you squeeze through narrow openings
between huge boulders and run long stretches of powerful rapids.
You'll break for a delicious lunch of cold meats, cheeses, lettuce,
fruits, bread and juice served along the river's edge by your Aventuras
Naturales guides. While lunch is being prepared, you'll have plenty
of time to relax and enjoy the spectacular scenery as you marvel
at the raw, pounding power of the untamed Pacuare River that for
millions of years has coursed through this virgin tropical rainforest.
If you're
ready for an exciting day filled with wet and wonderful fun, the
Pacuare is ready for you! Rafters should be physically fit for
this trip, although no previous white-water experience is necessary.

“This river trip exceeded my expectations in every way. Our guide was intelligent and helpful, and funny. We’ve gone rafting in the U.S. before and this trip was truly the most professionally operated, and the scenery incomparable. We will recommend this company again and again. Thank you.”
