Special Culinary Experience – Visiting a Farm in the Mountains

An off-grid, farm-to-table adventure combining horseback riding, breathtaking views, and a gourmet meal in a secluded mountain retreat.

Escape to a secluded mountain retreat where nature, adventure, and gourmet dining come together in an unforgettable half-day experience. This exclusive private journey takes you off the grid to a hidden food forest farm, accessible only by horseback. Here, you will enjoy a thoughtfully curated meal crafted from the farm’s organic bounty, inspired by the resourceful traditions of Korean temple food and prepared by a talented Argentinian chef Oz.

With no electricity, no distractions, and only breathtaking views stretching to Monteverde, this is a true immersion into tranquility, flavor, and the beauty of sustainable living.

The Experience

Your adventure begins with a scenic 20-minute drive around the Arenal Lake to the meeting point, where you’ll be introduced to your horse. No prior riding experience is required—our well-trained horses ensure a smooth and comfortable ascent. The 1-hour ride takes you through stunning landscapes, climbing into the mountains until you reach our secluded farm, far removed from the hustle of tourist areas.

Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed with a refreshing drink and appetizers, setting the stage for a meal unlike any other. The menu highlights the farm’s freshest ingredients—seasonal vegetables, wild herbs, and an array of fermented and cured delicacies, all prepared without refrigeration. Each dish is a testament to creativity and sustainability, offering a taste of the land in its purest form.

After your meal, take time to relax in the peaceful surroundings. Whether you choose to soak in the views, stretch out in a shaded nook hammock, or simply listen to the sounds of nature, this moment is yours to unwind. A gentle stroll through the gardens follows, allowing you to connect with the thriving food forest before you mount your horse once more for the return ride.
