ATV Discovery Adventure

ATV Discovery Adventure: Top Pick for Real Dirt, Volcano Views, and Open Trails

When our guests want an authentic off-road ride without feeling like they're stuck in a boring tourist convoy, we always point them to Outback Adventures. Their fleet of modern automatic 4x4 Yamaha Kodiak 450cc ATVs gives you total confidence on the trail, and the Discovery Adventure hits the absolute sweet spot: a 3-hour deep dive into the rainforest, river crossings, and massive panoramic viewpoints.

You don't need to be a professional racer, but you do need to come ready to get dusty, navigate rugged paths, and have an absolute blast on four wheels.

What to Know Before You Go

• Who is it for?: Perfect for adventure lovers, couples, or families looking for a solid 3-hour ride (kids 5 and up are welcome as passengers, and drivers must carry a valid license).
• The main highlight: The variety of the route. You'll wind through dense forest trails, splash across the Arenal River (with time for a quick dip if weather permits), take in breathtaking vistas of the Arenal Volcano and the Fortuna Valley, and wrap up with a cultural visit to Villa Maleku.
• What others won't tell you (And we will): You will get muddy and dusty depending on the weather. Wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty, and make sure you bring closed-toe shoes. The terrain has bumpy, uneven sections, which is exactly what makes it so fun!
