About Us
Who are we?
We are Puerto Rico Summit for Outdoor and Adventure Recreation, known commercially as PR SOAR. A Puerto Rican company focused on outdoor recreation and adventure education in Puerto Rico and the United States. We specialize in unique and effective approaches for groups, whether school, university, or corporate, through workshops, talks, and guided outdoor activities.
For years, we have worked in collaboration with our clients on projects and/or activities ranging from fun to adventure, using the concept of “Experiential Learning” as our approach. This concept is based on reflecting on the experience itself, as a tool and contrasting it with rote or didactic learning.
Our team has over 25 years of experience in the areas of Rope Courses, Team Building (TB), Environmental Interpretation, Ecotourism Excursions, Outdoor Activities (such as camping, hiking, backpacking), corporate events, among others. Please give us the opportunity to help you and continue enjoying the wonderful feedback from our customers about our most important asset, our people.

Why don't we publish the locations of some of our experiences?
As a matter of company policy, out of respect for private property and the preservation of natural areas or reserves, we cannot reveal the name of the location, as these spaces require authorization and/or a contract from the custodians of these spaces to operate while maintaining a balance with the ecosystem and thus contributing to sustainability. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Do you have any restrictions?
Participants must be in good health and physical condition. Participants with recent injuries, surgeries, and/or pregnancies will not be able to participate in some of our activities.
Some of our experiences involve uneven and slippery terrain, moving water, standing near ledges and/or steep cliffs, and hiking on steep hills with a sustained gradient, among others.
Participants with a medical or physical condition that makes participation dangerous are not allowed to participate.
Due to size restrictions on our harnesses and other technical equipment, we cannot accommodate individuals weighing more than 250 pounds on the rappelling or climbing components of our tours.
PR SOAR reserves the right to cancel or limit your participation based on your physical condition.
