Note: The “Tree Tram” cable car is the new name that the Treetopia Park, formerly known as Sky Adventures Monteverde, assigned to the Sky Tram aerial tram. You may continue to see the Tree Tram cited as the “Sky Tram” online and in print while businesses and individuals work to update their resources.

Features
- Experience the TreeTram cableway as a bonus included in your SkyTrek zipline tour.
- Encounter 7 ziplines ranging from 460 to 2460 feet in length, soaring at heights of up to 328 feet.

Note: A component of the Sky Trek Canopy Tour in Monteverde is the Vertigo Drop, which requires you to jump off a tall metal structure, similar to bungee jumping. Unlike bungee jumping, however, where you bounce back up following the jump, with the Vertigo Drop, your free fall is slowed by ropes so you land softly on a crash pad amid the forest. If you do not want to experience the Vertigo Drop, consider participating in the Sky Trek Canopy Tour in La Fortuna/Arenal instead. The tour in La Fortuna/Arenal does not include this component.
