Horseback Riding to Biagua Waterfall (Private Tour)

Experience the raw beauty of Costa Rica’s Central Pacific from a unique perspective. This premium horseback riding expedition takes you on a scenic journey through private rainforest trails bordering the Carara region to witness the breathtaking Bijagual Waterfall, one of the country’s highest cascades at 328 meters (over 1,000 feet).

Departing directly from your hotel in Jacó or its surroundings, you will enjoy a quick, scenic drive toward the lush coastal mountains. Guided by expert local cowboys and naturalists, you will ride well-trained, gentle horses through lush jungle paths and pristine mountain landscapes. After a short walk down to the base of the waterfall to enjoy a refreshing swim in crystal-clear natural pools, you will mount up for the return ride. The adventure concludes with a spectacular culinary experience at a premium countryside restaurant overlooking the region, where you will savor a high-quality artisanal lunch featuring jaw-dropping panoramic views of the famous Tárcoles River area.
