This Vandará Hot Springs & Adventures full-day pass includes all of the extraordinary experiences offered at Vandará, plus round-trip transportation from Playa Hermosa. These experiences include our adventurous zipline course, a horseback riding expedition on the landscapes of Guanacaste, a trapiche cultural tour to get to know the most important aspects of our Costa Rican culture, an adventurous water slide, a revitalizing mineral mud bath, and of course, our relaxing all-natural volcanic hot springs. The full-day pass also includes an exquisite lunch at our restaurant.
Zipline Course information:
This traditional zip-line tour comprises 8 cables and 9 platforms, anchored both to trees and to the land. Cable distances range from 100 meters to 400 meters and have different heights, thereby allowing you to experience a feeling of being one with the forest and nature. Get a view of the hot springs and the waterfall in our property in the last sections of the zipline. Begin this activity by climbing the mountain, either in an off-road vehicle or on horseback.
Horseback Riding information:
This quiet tour around our park lasts approximately 15 to 20 minutes. You will be able to enjoy the natural surroundings of a dry secondary basal forest and visit unique spots to enjoy incredible views of the San Roque hill, one of the great natural beauties that can be seen from Vandará.
Trapiche information:
The trapiche is the most traditional spot in our park and takes you back to our Costa Rican roots. In it, you will enjoy a traditional mill with a firewood kitchen, a clay oven, piles, and more. At the other end, you’ll see our spoiled ox powerfully triggering the mill’s mechanism, which in turn extracts the cane juice and liquor. The taste of Guanacaste’s cuisine is also present during this tour, as all visitors are offered dripped coffee with exquisite pastries and tanelas. To provide a more educational experience, a short cultural talk on trapiches and coffee is also offered.
Waterslide information:
This is a thrilling activity involving a 400-meter slide that finishes in a cold-water pool. It will put your emotions to the test while you live a fun and exhilarating experience. Special safety equipment is used, including a rubber donut which makes sliding easier and helps regulate each visitor’s speed according to his/her weight.
Hot Springs information:
Our park offers you an opportunity to relax and enjoy two thermal-water pools that are fed by a spring located within our property, on the banks of the Tizate river. The water is at a temperature of 49° Celsius, ideal for Guanacaste’s warm weather.
Mud Bath information:
Our mud bath is a peeling therapy with volcanic mud, ideal for those who wish to purify their skin while relaxing next to our magnificent waterfall. To make the experience even more unforgettable, guests have the opportunity to remove the mud in the river and its refreshing waterfall.
