Rincon
de la Vieja National Park Tour
Code: CRWT-34
Code: CRWT-34
This National Park was created to protect the biodiversity around Rincon
de la Vieja Volcano area. It extends over 14,083 hectares of semi-deciduous
forest and very moist forest and includes a barren rocky terrain at altitudes
that range from 1950 feet to 5748 feet above the sea level on the Caribbean
and Pacific sides of the Guanacaste Volcanic Mountain Range. Fumaroles,
hot mud pools and the eerie steam holes of Las Pailas create an amazing
landscape. This is a hiking tour that takes about an hour and 45 minutes
to get to La Cangreja Waterfall which is about 195 feet high and is located
on a rocky terrain devastated by the volcanic eruptions. The tour not
only provides the opportunity to appreciate Rincon de la Vieja´s
geothermal wonders, it also allows a close view of an ancient forest hundreds
of years old. Huge trees protect spider monkeys, leaf-cutter ants, toucans
and all kind of great and small creatures.| Full Day Tour
