Hanging bridges hike at Heliconias

Just outside Bijagua, on the slopes of Tenorio Volcano, a trail leads across four hanging bridges strung 30 to 40 metres above the forest floor. We meet you at the entrance of Heliconias Lodge and walk the route together over about two and a half hours, at an easy pace with time to stop, look and listen.

From the bridges you are walking at the level of the treetops, where much of the forest's life happens. Your bilingual naturalist guide will help you look for birds, monkeys, sloths and iguanas along the way and share what we know about the plants and animals of this forest. On clear days the views open out over Bijagua and Lake Nicaragua.

The hike suits nature lovers, birdwatchers and photographers who want a different view of the rainforest, and anyone curious to see the canopy up close. Tours are guided in English or French, and you can add lodging, transport, meals or camping to your visit.
