Welcome to Catarata Del Toro, Costa Rica’s Ultimate Secret® a privately-owned ecological waterfall project and Second to None in Beauty and Splendor. Since its start in 2005, we have been 100% committed to conserving the natural environment and beauty around us. And you can experience the results. In the middle of this unique property, you will run into your most incredible waterfall experience in Costa Rica.
And if you prefer to discover new places in your private space, come over; we never have crowds. So, if you like waterfalls in the most natural way possible, this is the place to visit.
First, you will see Costa Rica’s most impressive waterfall tumbling into an old volcanic crater. Then, with the rock formations, flora, and fauna, i.e., the complete setup, the experience is unforgettable and breathtaking. In the upper part, you will enjoy the views of our four lookouts: trees, flowers, forest, gardens, panoramic views, and birds.
Remember all the fantastic hummingbirds circling your head. Super and Magnifique, as our French clients like to describe it. All this beauty together will give serene tranquility. No photo does this place justice.
Catarata Del Toro is a private ecological reserve, and we want to share its beauty with you. Many globetrotters have assured us that the Catarata Del Toro waterfall certainly belongs in the top 10 waterfalls of the world. We invite you to come over and check it out yourself. So, please put Catarata Del Toro on your “Need to see” list.
We also want to emphasize our second-biggest natural wonder: birds! The counter stands on 204 species, including some endemic species.
Our location is perfect. It is close enough for a day trip from San José or Alajuela. Located halfway between the international airport SJO and La Fortuna, you will enjoy a fantastic scenic route. Just adjust your itinerary a little bit for a few hours. The roads are all paved, and a 4×4 is not needed. See Google maps: ‘Catarata Del Toro, Alajuela Province, Bajos Del Toro’.
Please note that Google mentions that the route through Zarcero is closed; it is not. It is open. You have three options for driving in: through Sarchí, Zarcero, or Rio Cuatro.
Furthermore, see the video at the end of this page for the first impression. Or search the web for the latest videos and photos. It will show you our project and the surrounding area, and we trust it will persuade you to visit us soon.
