What to Bring:
Experience the Gravity Falls Triple Threat - a day of EXTREME tours, packed with adrenaline, physical activity and exciting challenges!
This Gravity Fall Triple Threat Combo was created to invite adventurous travelers to a greater level of challenge, a step up from a regular tour experience. On this adrenaline packed day, you’ll experience three of the most popular adventure tours, allowing you to make the most of your time spent in La Fortuna. You’ll start off at Gravity Falls waterfall jumping canyon for your first dose of adrenaline. Then, embark on an exciting mountain bike ride to the Balsa River for White Water Rafting.
Challenge #1: Gravity Falls Waterfall Jumping
Gravity Falls is a multi-sport activity that involves using your whole body to rappel, cliff jump, climb and hike through a rustic natural canyon located in the middle of the pristine rainforest.
Dive right into the adrenaline rush with the first 140-foot rappel down a lush waterfall. As you reach the bottom, you’ll let go of the rope and drop into a cool crystalline pool beneath the waterfall and swim into shore. Then, keep walking and you’ll jump down a series of waterfalls and cliffs that range between 10 and 30ft. Your professional guides will be there every step of the way to motivate and encourage you throughout the tour.
Challenge #2: Mountain Biking
After catching your breath from waterfall jumping, you will be provided with high quality mountain bikes and gear for your trek towards the Balsa River. Feel free to use the bathrooms and change rooms to change into your biking clothes. You will also be provided a snack and refreshments before heading out on your bike ride.
You’ll bike through the Costa Rica countryside that moves in and out of small villages and across rolling hills until you reach our private put-in at the Balsa River.
Challenge #3: White Water Rafting on the Balsa River
True to the Desafio name, which means “challenge” in Spanish, rafting on the Balsa River will challenge you yet again as you paddle down class 2-3 rapids with a professional rafting guide. Other than experiencing a variety of rapids, you'll glide through calm sections of the river, providing plenty of opportunity for wildlife viewing.
After the epic white water rafting experience, you’ll be taken to a local restaurant for a delicious lunch. After your delicious meal, you will have a chance to relax and rest when you are dropped off at your hotel.
RESERVATION POLICIES
This adventure involves some inherent risk and physical exertion, so you must be in good physical condition to attempt it. While the recommended weight limit for our canyoneering (rappelling) tour and most zip line tours is 220 lbs (100 kilos) it’s more about waist size than weight as the ropes (canyoneering) and cables (zip lines) are rated for well over 220 lbs but the maximum waist size for the harnesses used for these tours is 42 inches. So if you are a little over 220 lbs but your waist is less than 42 inches you may be able to do these tours.
For reasons beyond our control (climate, river levels, etc.), we may change to a more-suitable tour with an equal or similar adventure-appeal or offer other tour options. We reserve the right to cancel a trip due to unfavorable conditions & will only run a tour according to our company policies. Full refund is given if (on rare occasion) no tour is run.
Some hotels out of our normal pick-up zone may be me charged an extra drop-off and pick-up fee.
