The hanging bridges are between 48 and 98 meters long. All the bridges are made of 
galvanized steel and high-strength aluminum. The safety mesh and the suspension cables are all galvanized steel. The entire project was designed to blend with the natural environment, leaving the forest virtually intact.

Arenal Volcano 
 
Arenal Volcano which rises 5,436 feet above sea level is the most active and no doubt the most studied of all Costa Ricas volcanoes. It booms and rumbles with an unnerving consistency and its nocturnal pyrotechnics have struck awe in the hearts of thousands of observers. With its perfectly conical shape and its continuing activity, Arenal is a picture book image of a volcano. Daily ash columns, underground rumbling, glowing red lava flows and sudden explosions make Arenal a must-see on any tourists itinerary.

Seeing a great nighttime eruption like shown in the posters is a matter of luck due to cloud cover. However, even when the summit of the volcano is covered you can often see the lava flows farther down the side. Occasionally the activity quiets down for a few weeks, but generally it puts on several eruptive displays a day.

This is a beautiful part of Costa Rica and there is plenty to do besides volcano watching.
