    About

    Jungle & Maleku ATV is the shorter, easy-going way to ride an ATV in La Fortuna. In 2 hours you follow guided rainforest trails, mud sections and shallow streams around Arenal, and stop at Villa Maleku to meet the Maleku indigenous community, their language and traditional crafts. After a full safety briefing and a practice ride, your guide sets a relaxed pace with time for photos and wildlife. Single (one rider per ATV) and Double (two riders sharing one ATV) options are available, and a Private option keeps the guide for your group only. Sold on request: we confirm availability with Outback Adventures before any payment. Transport from La Fortuna and surroundings can be arranged and is quoted separately.
