La Fortuna Waterfall

La Fortuna Waterfall plunges into a forested basin below town. A steep stair route makes the viewpoint and the return climb part of the same outing.

La Fortuna Waterfall

Why go

The fall’s height is striking from below, where the cascade meets a green basin rather than a distant overlook. Reaching that perspective involves descending many steps and then climbing back, giving the visit a physical rhythm. The forest around the water keeps the focus on the landscape.

What to look for

  • A steep stair descent to a 70-metre waterfall.
  • The plunging fall and forested basin.
