Two Mountains Horseback Ride
Introduction
Tour from Monteverde to Arenal or Arenal to Monteverde. This
adventure takes you in between two of Costa Rica's most popular
inland destinations!
Avoid driving the long trek around the lake, and take this
full day adventure on horseback in the breathtaking mountains
and valleys of central Costa Rica. If you have a rental car
in either destination*, it can be driven to your destination
for you along with your luggage.
These trips offer one-way
transportation for people and their luggage. We will either take your luggage by packhorse or
by boat as circumstances allow. With advance notice it is
also possible for us to make arrangements with car rental
agencies for us to chauffeur your car around the lake while
you ride by horse. We have stables and pasture near the Arenal
Lake which allows us to operate this trail and keeps our horses
from having to make return trips up or down the Mountain after
a tour.
Some other organizations that operate solely out of Monteverde
or Arenal sometimes require their horses to make a return
trip. If you are looking for a little adventure and a chance
to get around in Costa Rica without having to take a bus or
taxi then this is the way to go! Below are details on two
horseback rides we are offering from Monteverde to Arenal
or vice versa. This tour takes in total approximately 5 ½
hours depending on the riders and the hotels where we will
be picking up and dropping off.
-
1 ½ Hours by car from Monteverde to Rio Chiquito
- 3 ½ Hours by horse from Rio Chiquito towards the
volcano
- ¼ Hour boat ride across the lake
- And finally a car ride from the Arenal side of the Lake
to your hotel.
Along the Lake Trail there are many tropical birds, views
of the volcano and scenic jungle parts. This is a suitable
ride for any level of experience.
*add $45 to drive your rental vehicle to or from Arenal
