Parque Natural Volcán Arenal, La Fortuna, Costa Rica
Viaje en bus desde San José a La Fortuna para visitar el Volcán Arenal. Sencillamente espectacular. Hicimos un tour muy suave, aunque hay de muchos niveles. El volcán estaba tapado por las nubes pero merece la pena la experiencia. Vivir viajando con mochila.

La Fortuna Costa Rica - Arenal Volcano Travel Guide | 90+ Countries With 3 Kids
Welcome to La Fortuna, a charming little town in Costa Rica!
This cute town was founded in the 1930s and it was originally called “El Burio.” However, locals decided to change the name of the city to La Fortuna, which means “fortune” in Spanish, because of the fertility of their lands and the vast variety of tourist attractions it offers.
It is located in San Carlos Canton, nearby the Arenal Volcano, which you can clearly see from the village. Its first eruption happened in 1968 when it destroyed the small town of Tabacón and spared La Fortuna at the same time. Even though this was Costa Rica’s most active volcano during the past few decades, and one of top 10 most active volcanos in the world, since 2010, Arenal has been dormant.
The Arenal Volcano National Park is definitely worth a visit, especially if you are into bird-watching. 850 different bird species can be found here, along with coatis, deer, jaguars, various snakes and white-faced capuchin monkeys.
If you are looking for accommodation in La Fortuna, Selina is our recommendation. This place is ideal for digital nomads. It is located in the center of the town, has a fantastic co-working office, fast internet and plenty of space where you can relax, like comfy hammocks, huts around the bonfire, movie room, library, and outdoor yoga studio. They also have a pool, bar and a restaurant that serves terrific food, but also a shared kitchen where you can cook for yourself.

Costa Rica - La Fortuna (Beautiful) Part 3
Welcome to my travelchannel.On my channel you can find almost 1000 films of more than 70 countries.
See the playlist on my youtube channel.Enjoy!
La Fortuna,Costa Rica
La Fortuna is a rural city located in San Carlos, in the province of Alajuela, Costa Rica.
La Fortuna has the airport which is nearest to the Arenal Volcano, though many visitors also arrive via automobile, to the resorts and hotels in La Fortuna, Castillo, Palma, Monteverde, or Tilaran. Arenal is often cited by scientists as being in the top ten or top 20 of the world's most active volcanoes.La Fortuna is less than 10 km from the peak of Arenal and less than 20 km from the entrance to Arenal Volcano National Park (the entrance is west of the peak, whereas La Fortuna is east of the peak).
Other than the volcano, La Fortuna has tourist attractions such as the La Catarata de la Fortuna, a waterfall that falls from a height of 70 meters, several resorts with natural hot springs temperate enough to bathe in, other day spa services, and day-trips which involve horseback riding, whitewater rafting, hanging bridges, a sky tram, zip-lines, mountain bike, kayak, stand-up paddleboard, and ATV or dirt bike rentals, butterfly farm and Venado Cavern tours, bungee jumping, Laguna Cedeno, El Salto Swimming Hole, and canyoneering.
La Fortuna has a medic station but serious injuries require a medivac (or long travel on roadways), a police station (and another is on the way to El Tapon), gas station, 3 banks, 3 groceries, restaurants (in addition to those in the resorts), post office, and hardware store.
Arenal Volcano Costa Rica
Positioned within Costa Rica's fertile northern lowlands, the Arenal Volcano is an unavoidable presence while traveling within this part of the country. It is tall and imposing and has a reputation that precedes itself. Arenal's perfectly symmetrical shape makes it a sightseer's dream, while its abundance of outdoor activities makes it an easy place to check things off your must-do in Costa Rica list.
Until 2010, it was Costa Rica's most active volcano. Much to the enjoyment of its visitors, Arenal spewed enormous amounts of lava, gas and ash on a regular basis. That eruptive cycle -- which began with the infamous eruption of 1968 -- ended recently. In October 2010, Arenal entered into an indeterminate resting phase. For the time being, visitors will be unable to watch the much-loved explosions, although that could change within a matter of months or years. Travelers to Arenal will still enjoy its bountiful sights, sounds and activities— there are mountains to be hiked, lakes to be fished and rivers to be floated. As one of the country's most scenic and accessible areas, it is a requisite stop on any tour of Costa Rica.
As Arenal's ultimate travel resource, this site is dedicated to providing you with information about the Arenal Volcano and the surrounding area. It's our hope that with the tools and services we offer, you'll be able to plan a fun and memorable adventure to Costa Rica.
You can follow individual links to learn more about La Fortuna, Lake Arenal, and other volcanoes in Costa Rica. If you want more guidance on where else to travel in Costa Rica, just visit our Costa Rica Destinations Guide. It's simple and easy to use.
Lake Arenal
In many ways, Lake Arenal is just as monumental as the volcano that rises above its eastern shoreline. With a surface of over 33 sq mi (85 sq km) and a depth of some 200 ft (60 m), it is Costa Rica's largest landlocked body of water. As such, it provides ample opportunities for activities such as windsurfing, fishing, boating and more.

Good morning. Today we’re going to go on a horseback ride with Jacamar naturalist tours. This is one of the tours that you can book through our website and get a special deal on. WE’re going to go on a nice couple hour horseback ride through the fields, up to a nice view point and hopefully see the volcano if it clears up a little bit. It should be a really fun day.
So this tour is great for anyone of all ages or families, even if you’ve never been on a horse before because all these horses are really gentle, they know where to go and the views are beautiful.
This is one of the viewpoints that we go up to on the horseback riding tour, you have a view of Arenal Volcano, the rain forest below and this is one of the nicest horseback rides in the Arenal area. If you want more information you can check the links below and thanks for watching.

La Fortuna El Salto Rope Swing in the Volcano Arenal area Costa Rica
La Fortuna is a sweet little town that I liked a lot. The area seems more prosperous than other areas of Costa Rica. Just outside of town is a rope swing waterfall. It is free and a favorite among locals. We rented a farm from a local fellow that had different accommodations As we made no reservations we had gone to 4 resorts/hotels and they were all booked. So this area is popular and plan accordingly . El Salto is the name of the waterfall rope swing. Parking is free near the bridge.
Hotel Tour of Arenal Volcano Inn, La Fortuna, Costa Rica

It is a lovely hotel with only 27 rooms, a swimming pool, jacuzzi and onsite restaurant. It has amazing views of Arenal Volcano. It is approximately a 10 minute drive to La Fortuna town.
The video is to give you a point of view of a hotel guest.

Mistico Arenal Bridges Hanging Park Costa Rica
Day four of our trip had us in for our biggest adventure yet. Mistico Arenal Hanging Bridges Park in La Fortuna de San Carlos was our first stop of the day. The trails at Mistico Park stretched for two miles and gradual elevation changes. As we wondered down the different paths and throughout the park, the highlights were the six hanging bridges. The park is famous for these bridges and a few of them hung over treetop canopies. It was pleasantly beautiful as we walked across them. I thoroughly enjoyed taking my time walking across them and grabbing as many pictures as I could. Don't look down though, unless you dare!
