Highlights
  • Rio Celeste - Upon reaching the park, we embarked on a 7km (approximately 4 miles) trek that took us past the River Celeste Waterfall, Tenorio Lookout, Blue Lagoon, an ideal spot for photography, Borbollones (small geysers), and ultimately to Teñideros where a natural phenomenon occurs as the waters from two clear streams merge, transforming the water into a stunning shade of bright, light blue, which is the reason behind the name ‘Rio Celeste’ or Light-Blue River.

Fun Hike Activity - Our family of 4 took this tour during rainy season. It rained almost the whole time we were there. It was a nice hike, although I was worried about slipping sometimes. The hike does get muddy and there are stairs that are really, really steep. The waterfall is beautiful. How beautiful in color depends upon how much rain and sun there is the day before and the day of the hike. The color we saw was beautiful, but not as bright as other days, we were told. It was a nice activity for the whole family and we did see monkeys, spiders, and snakes.
