Beskrivning
Wade through a volcanic river canyon inside Rincón de la Vieja to reach La Leona Waterfall — a hidden gem with turquoise pools, only reachable on foot through the river.
Deep inside the base of Rincón de la Vieja volcano, a hidden canyon holds one of Guanacaste's best-kept secrets: La Leona Waterfall. Surrounded by turquoise natural pools and carved canyon walls shaped by centuries of volcanic water flow, this is a place that cannot be reached by trail — only by walking through the river itself.
This is not a conventional hike. From the moment you enter the water, you'll wade through cool volcanic currents, move between towering canyon walls, and stop at natural pools along the way to cool off before reaching the main waterfall. There are no constructed steps, no platforms, and no tourist infrastructure — just the canyon, the water, and your group.
The experience is intermediate in difficulty and led by a certified local guide, fully bilingual in Spanish and English, who knows every corner of the canyon. With a maximum of 30 guests per tour, the experience stays personal, safe, and immersive from start to finish.
La Leona Waterfall thunders into a large natural swimming pool at the base of the canyon — a reward that few travelers ever get to see. If you're looking for an authentic, untouched natural experience in Costa Rica, this is it.
