Bungee Jump from a Tram in Monteverde: 143 Meters

The only bungee jump in the world from a tram suspended over a valley.

Bungee jump from a motorized tram in Monteverde that descends 143 meters into a valley center: the highest jump in Costa Rica and Central America. A professional guide in English or Spanish walks you through the setup, provides all safety equipment including helmet, and the experience takes about 90 minutes plus transportation. Jumpers must weigh between 50 and 113 kilograms. Children are welcome from age 15 when accompanied by an adult.

The experience

The jump happens from a tram that moves along a cable system, not from a fixed platform. The tram descends to the jump point 143 meters above the valley floor, and once you're positioned at the edge, you step off into the void. This setup is unique: no other bungee operation in the world uses a moving tram as the launch point. The cable system is motor-operated, so the tram carries you to the exact height and position before the guide signals the jump.

You'll need to be in good physical condition and have no spinal injuries or serious cardiovascular issues to participate. The weight range is strict: minimum 50 kilograms, maximum 113 kilograms. Children from age 15 can jump if an adult is present. Wear smart casual clothing and bring a valid passport. The operation runs regardless of weather, so dress for rain or sun. Cameras and video equipment cannot go on the tram itself, though you can arrange a DVD recording of your jump for an additional fee. Transportation to and from the jump site is included, and the whole experience (setup, safety briefing, the jump itself and the ride back) takes roughly 90 minutes.

The guide is a live professional who speaks English or Spanish and handles all the technical checks before you jump. You'll wear a helmet and full safety harness. Every piece of equipment is provided. The jump operates every day in any weather condition, so you choose between an 8am or 11am departure based on your schedule.

Is this one for you?Choose the 8am departure if you want the jump done early and the rest of your day free. The 11am slot works better if you're staying in town and prefer a later start. Either way, you need to be between 50 and 113 kilograms and in strong physical condition. This is not a casual activity, and the weight limits are firm.
