Ride on horseback through the foothills of the rainforest, where only the stars in the sky and some friendly local fireflies light well-groomed trails.

On this guided excursion you will:

Take an approximate one-hour drive from San Juan to a local ranch in the rainforest.
Be introduced to your horse and participate in a short orientation.
Leave the ranch along trails that lead along the foothills of the rainforest.
Ride as trail dogs keep the horses on track and the guides keep you and your fellow riders spaced.
Appreciate the tranquility and peacefulness of nighttime of the rainforest, you will not be lead into the rainforest itself.
Stop by a campfire to roast marshmallows, have a cold drink and learn a little bit about the area from your guides.
Re-mount and head back to the ranch for the return trip to San Juan.

Note: Weather in the rainforest is unpredictable therefore a light jacket is recommended, insect repellant, sturdy closed toed shoes and long pants are also recommended.

Pregnant women are not permitted on this excursion.

Minimum age for participation is 10 years.

Maximum weight limit is 250 lbs.

Guests cannot take pictures during the ride, only when they make the stop at the campfire and at the end of the excursion beside the horses.
