Detailed itinerary
1
Tenorio Volcano National Park is a spectacular destination where travelers can enjoy a hike of approximately 3 hours and 6 km through a nature trail that passes through the main attractions of the park. It highlights the Celeste River Falls, a waterfall of about 20 meters with a vibrant turquoise blue color, one of the biggest attractions of the place. You can also visit the Blue Lagoon, an intensely colored pool where it is common to see turtles. Another important point is the shrouds, where hot water bubbles are observed due to volcanic activity. The tour ends at the Tinyard, where the river magically changes its color to blue due to an optical effect of light scattering. The park also offers panoramic views of the volcanic massif and you can admire the local flora and fauna, enjoy natural bridges and rising water. These activities allow visitors to connect with nature.
