What You Can Expect

Spend a delightful day exploring the natural wonders of Tenorio Volcano National Park. Your tour begins with morning pickup at your La Fortuna hotel, and then a 1.5-hour drive that takes you through the scenic hillsides of Arenal Volcano National Park. Stock up on snacking provisions at a local store if you like (own expense) before entering the majestic beauty of Tenorio Volcano National Park.

Embark on a moderately challenging 4- to 5-hour hike through the lush rainforest of the park. The terrain is steep and rocky at parts, so feel free to hike at a pace that works for you. Your guide will point out highlights of the landscape, including interesting plants and the many types of wildlife that call this area home. Keep an eye out for blue morpho butterflies, tropical birds, tapirs, ocelots, sloths, and spider monkeys.

When you arrive at the Rio Celeste waterfall, you?ll immediately see how this cascade got its name, which means ?sly-blue river.? Admire the crashing waters that empty into a lagoon, which takes on a brilliant blue hue courtesy of natural mineral deposits in the river. Relax along this picturesque scene as your guide shares local myths about how the river got its eye-catching color.

Continue on your hike to the Los Te?ideros, which features the convergence of two rivers in the jungle. Behold the clear waters turning bright blue when they merge as if by magic ? a natural spectacle caused by a chemical reaction of volcanic minerals in the water.

At the end of your hike, rest and refuel with the delicious regional cuisine at a local restaurant before the return drive to your La Fortuna hotel.
