End point
This activity ends back at the meeting point.What To Expect
Choose from four daily departure times and head to Selvatura Park, the only zipline course located inside the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, for a high-flying adventure through one of Costa Rica’s most unique ecosystems. Set beside the misty San Gerardo Cloud Forest, this park offers a rare chance to experience the canopy from within a protected reserve rather than from the forest edge.
After meeting your guides, begin with a full safety briefing before being fitted with a harness, helmet, and all necessary equipment. A short walk through the forest leads you to the first treetop platform, where your ziplining experience starts.
With your guides assisting at each launch point, glide from platform to platform across a series of long, high cables that carry you above the cloud forest canopy, offering sweeping views of the jungle below. The course features some of the longest ziplines in Costa Rica, designed for extended rides and a stronger sense of flight. To complete the experience, take the leap on the giant Tarzan Swing for one final burst of adrenaline before returning to the park.

The Selvatura Park Canopy Tour was seriously a rush! We’ve done a lot of research on different zip-lining parks, and this one stood out for a reason. Some of the lines were incredibly long, fast, and high, giving you that perfect mix of adrenaline and pure awe as you glide over the cloud forest.
Every moment felt safe, organized, and so much fun. And honestly? Totally worth the money. The length of the lines, the views, the speed, and the overall experience make it absolutely unforgettable.
If you’re in Costa Rica and want a thrill that you’ll be talking about for years, this is the zip line tour to choose.

Wear closed toe shoes. Parking lot is very safe. Leave everything in the car that you possibly can. (Don’t even wear bobby-pins in hair). Don’t carry water or much at all. $50 Go-Pro is so with the videos! There is quite a bit of walking uphill so take breaks if needed.

The zip lining was awesome! Incredible views!
And so much fun!
The staff did a great job explaining everything and made sure everyone was safe.
Terrie_C, Mar 2025
Exceeded expectations. The longer lines were awesome especially tandem. Seamless landings. Friendly staff. Professional. Expect some uphill climbs. I don’t think I will zipline again only because I am not sure any future ziplining experience could compare. Highly recommend.
Helle_J, Feb 2025
It was a fun and good experience with nice, helpfull and competent guides. We had so much fun all the time.
Dhrumi_S, Jan 2025
Amazing experience, I cannot recommend it enough. The lines move extremely fast and the experience is unreal
Michelle_C, Dec 2024
Even though it was raining and cold the guids were all very nice and helpful. We had a great time zip lining and will do it again when we visit.

Amazing views of the canopy while soaring through the air. The staff are incredible efficient, friendly and helpful.
Sarah_M, Apr 2024
What a fantastic day - very well organised and every member of staff was friendly, professional, hard working and just great!
The views on the zip lines were unreal you literally felt like you were flying through the trees of the cloud forest - would highly recommend whilst in monteverde
Charlie_R, Apr 2024
so fun!! I'd been zip lining in other countries and this made those experiences feel like child's play. This one had super fast lines and it was a rush going from one tower to the next in quick succession, and there's just no comparison to flying through the air in a jungle. At the same time, if people were a little uneasy, the guides were very helpful to make it a fun experience for those that might be a little scared of it. 100% would recommend.

It was my second time zip lining in Costa Rica and the first time for our kids. We all loved it, even though the kids were apprehensive before we started. The guides were very friendly. The views were spectacular and there were a few very long runs, especially the 800m & 1km lines. It moved very efficiently and we were disappointed when it had to end. The Tarzan swing was fun too. We didn’t do the Superman on the 1km run but it did look exhilaratingly fun or terrifying, depending on your perspective. Would definitely recommend.

Ziplining was amazing , not too far from Santa Elena .
The helmets smelt bad and didn’t seem to be cleaned .
There is significant walk between ziplines but the scenery makes up for it .
Staff seems to be underpaid they are too boxes along with a request to pay for tip at the end.
Not every one can do the Tarzan swing there is a weight limit also similarly with Superman there is an age limit .
Sajida_K, Jan 2024
Ziplining in Selvatura was very fun! As someone who is slightly afraid of heights, I was apprehensive, but after the first cable, I was fine. The views were stunning and the last cable stretches for 1 km. One thing, the photos that the company upsells seem overpriced for the multiple variations of 3 to 4 photos. Safety is prioritized.
Jason_R, Jan 2024
Exhilarating day, surprisingly great zip lining! Great crew, safe equipment, beautiful forest- highly recommended!
Colette_S, Dec 2023
Be sure you are in great shape, a lot of climbing. Definitely worth the time.
All staff very friendly
Dan_O, Jun 2023
Worth the drive. Definitely do the Superman!!! It feels like flying. It was close to the feeling of skydiving
Angela_Y, Mar 2023
the description of where the park is VERY misleading. I have put in a request to my Credit card for refund...it's not in Monte Verde cloud forest not even close ... I tried to connect with them could, via phone tex and email could not reach them .... very upsetting ...Wound NOT recommend!!
Michael_W, May 2022
Tarzan swing was awesome and the Superman was the best ever, you actually feel like Superman. The view is unbelievable along with the very experienced guides.
Anoushka_L, Nov 2025
Great experience. Safe and good explanation especially the 1km zipline where you go together is very cool. Highly recommended.

Was very exciting, but we did it! Well arranged and fine, quiet instructors who radiate and give confidence! The Superman ride in the end costs $15, but was worth it!

Fantastisch! Zeker doen ! En vooral de Superman zipline bij boeken. Ik zou de luiaards, vlinders en reptielen niet doen. Veel geld voor wat je krijgt. De ziplines moet je wel doen. Aanrader.

Zufahrtsstrasse ist miserabel, der funpark aber sehr professionell organisiert. Trotzdem nicht die ideale Art um den dortigen nebelwald kennenzulernen
Marianela_M, Jul 2022
Todas las tirolesas seguras y divertidas , lo hicimos con niños y se la pasaron genial . El personal super amable y siempre dispuesto a ayudar
Muy recomendable hacerlo

Équipe bien rodée et bien organisée, guides très sympas. Bonne dynamique.
On a eut la chance de bénéficier d’une magnifique météo. Le premier parcourt de 8h30 était un bon choix, température très agréable.
