RIO CELESTE
@ Tenorio Volcano National Park

Full Day Tour

Hiking/Health.

The Rio Celeste National Park is a beautiful 1.5-hour scenic drive from the Arenal Volcano through rural villages. Rio Celeste is near the Tenorio and Miravalles Volcanoes and is becoming an increasingly popular area to visit in Costa Rica for hiking. Once we arrive, we will begin a hike through the dense, lush, tropical rainforest that surrounds the Tenorio National Park. You and your nature guide can go at your own pace and you'll learn interesting things about the rainforest along the way. When we arrive to Los Teñideros, where two rivers come together, you'll be amazed at the celestial turquoise blue water color that comes from the waterfall. Local legend as explained by members of the Maleku indigenous group of the area claim that God was painting the sky a celestial blue color and reached down to dip his brush to turn the river its magical blue color. But for a more scientific explanation, the celestial blue color is created when the minerals in the water: aluminum, silicon and oxygen are suspended in the water and refracts light from the sun so that the flow looks blue. So, get your cameras ready because this is the perfect place to take photos of this unforgettable Costa Rica blue waterfall! We'll finish off with a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. This hike takes about 1.5 to 2 hours or about 6 kms long (3 miles) and is considered a moderate hike. *Minimum 8 years old and good physical condition*.
