Costa Rica Coast-to-Coast Expedition
Cross the full width of one of the most biodiverse countries on Earth—under your own
power—traveling from one lush coastline to the other on an unforgettable coast-to-coast
journey.
Move through misty cloud forests, remote mountain villages, and untouched rainforest
alive with wildlife, climbing up and over the legendary Continental Divide as landscapes
shift dramatically beneath your feet, wheels, and paddle.
Unwind at beautiful eco-camps along the banks of the pristine Pacuare River, where
crystal-clear water invites refreshing swims and hidden jungle swimming holes offer
moments of pure serenity.
