¡FOR TREKKING LOVERS! Venture into the heart of the lush and exclusive jungle surrounded by beautiful springs with this medium-level hiking near the Children's Eternal Rainforest Reserve just 15 minutes from Arenal. These trails are ideal for hiking lovers with around 7km of adventure in the middle of second-growth forest and old-growth forest, with the possibility of seeing some species of birds, monkeys and, with great luck, sloths.

My husband and I did the extreme jungle hike yesterday. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and we had the time of our lives. It was just the three of us on private property bordering the national childrens forest. Our guide said he’s only run into another person on that hike one time. It was incredibly remote and the trail was skinny and difficult. It was about 3.2 miles total but it took us 2 hrs 45 min with stops at two different waterfalls. The waterfalls and jungle were breathtaking. We have never experienced anything so remote and beautiful. If you love a challenging hike and want to really get the jungle experience, definitely do this. It was a once in a lifetime experience.

Incredible place. Non turistic trip were you can enjoy rainforest. Guide was really nice, showed a lot of birds. But still this is not a zoo, so you will have to find all species by your self with guide.

It's a long hike (6 hours) but done at a manageable pace with lots of pauses to learn about the forest, the animals, and the country. Bryan had lots of information to share and was super nice company as a guide for our small group of the day.
Recommendations for travelers:
- Wear your swimsuit under your clothes. Swimming at the first waterfall is a highlight. I don't know where else you'd be able to get right into a waterfall of this size.
- Wear shoes for hiking that are going to get wet. You cross through a few rivers and there's no way to avoid stepping in the water.
- Have a big breakfast and pack some snacks. Lunch is delicious, but it's at the end of the hike. We were glad to have some granola bars in our bags to snack on our way.

Great hike through the jungle, visiting 2 waterfalls and swimming in the first waterfall. Hiking about 11K about 6 hrs. Bryon the guide was very friendly, knowledgeable about the plants, animals and history of CR. Highly recommend this hike. Yummy lunch provided after with fresh fruit, burrito sandwiches.
