Pacuare Lodge / Aventuras Naturales
Located: Turrialba,
Cartago.
Duration: 3
hours.
Description: To begin this tour, you will hike approximately 300 meters from
the lodge back to the gondola pass over the Pacuare River—an
experience in itself! When you reach the other side of the river,
the horses will be waiting, along with a horseman from the region.
Accompanied by one of our guides, the group will travel along a
dirt path from which you can appreciate beautiful views of the
Pacuare River, as well as protected forest.
The first part
of the ride is a climb up to an intermediate point from which you
can view the tiny community of Bajo del Tigre. You’ll
continue through secondary forest and fields before arriving at
this small community. There you can visit the school and learn
about some of the programs the institution is implementing. The
children’s mothers will prepare you a coffee break, after
which you will return to the river via a different route. There is
a stop on the way at a refreshing waterfall, where you can swim or
take photographs. From there, it is a twenty minute ride to the
river, where you’ll say “adios” to your horse
and cross the river again in gondola before arriving back at the
Pacuare Lodge.
