Tres Equis to Siquirres. Class III-IV The Pacuare River is one of the top five rafting rivers in the world for its scenery and rapids. This quintessential tropical river is a trip of pure magic, unsurpassed beauty, wildlife and exhilarating rapids.
Located on Costa Rica's Atlantic slope, the Pacuare River borders the Talamanca mountain range, home to native Cabecar Indians and an incredible variety of wildlife.
After an early morning pick-up from your San Jos� hotel, you will drive by private, comfortable bus to our Operations Center for a delicious, typical Costa Rican breakfast. Once at the river at our private put-in, you'll raft 16 miles deep in the heart of densely vegetated gorges, past gushing waterfalls, serene pools and pounding rapids, in one of Costa Rica's most impressive primary rainforests.
On the river you will raft by Rios Tropicales Lodge, where guests stay on two and three-day trips. Intimate and charming, the lodge blends naturally into the forest on our 1,000-acre private reserve, with waterfalls and pools. After an adrenaline-packed afternoon running rapids like Upper and Lower Huacas, Cimarron, Dos Monta�as and many more, after we finish, a short drive to Rios Tropicales Operations Center for a hearty and delicious lunch, showers, optional drinks and souvenir store.
