rafting pacuare

The country's longest and most spectacular river trip, can be run from mid May to mid March.
Two day trip recommended. Pacuare is Costa Ricas's white-water jewel.
Its is a fixture on lists of the world's top ten rafting and kayaking rivers, a heady combination of beauty and excitement which makes running Pacuare an expirience that will never be forgotten.
The Pacuare isn't called "the quintessential tropical river" for nothing. It's norrow course winds through a series of densely forested gorges, punctuated by about 20 waterfalls.
The 150 foot cascade called Huacas Falls is one of the natural wonders of Costa Rica.
Bajo Pacuare - San Martín(Class V-VI):Only the brave and skillful attempt this 15 miles of classic boiling white water and even they are forced to walk around at least one of this section's more treacherous Class VI rapids.
Some of the local outfitters run the trip for groups of expert paddlers from all over the world that come to Costa Rica to challenge this section, but youo won't find it on any of the lists of tours offered by the major rafting outfitters.
San Martín - Siquirres(Class III-IV):This is the trip your friends back home will get sick of hearing about.
In this magical place, you are surrounded by sheer gorges, magnificent waterfalls and all the incredible beauty of the tropical forest as you plunge through some of the best white water in Central America.
There are stomach-churning drops, tricky boulder gardens and then there;s the Lower Huacas, a 150 yard stretch of ledges and rocks that produce the toughest rapid on the river's lower section.
The Pacuare's final spectacle is the famous float between the sheer rock walls of Dos Montañas canyon before the gentler Class II and III paddle to takeout point at the Limón highway.
