Zipline, Monteverde

Delve into the misty Costa Rican rainforest by soaring through the treetops on some of the country's longest zipline courses. The exhilarating flight will allow you to experience the jungle and its remarkably diverse ecosystem from a bird's-eye perspective. Look out for tiny hummingbirds and colorful butterflies as you launch from treetop platforms, wobble on rope bridges, and sway on giant Tarzan swings. You can top off an adrenaline-fueled journey with a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. These 2- to 3-hour adventures are not suitable for children under the age of four.
