costa rica camping
Our Costa Rica vacation begins with a scenic drive through the countryside, arriving a small town near the Arenal Volcano.
We visit, a local farmer who takes great pride in teaching visitors about tropical farming and native and non-native plants, including their medicinal uses.
We are especially proud of his bio-digester methane gas production system that uses cow manure as a fuel source to produce methane gas for cooking!
We'll tour the fields picking produce, test our skills with a tortilla-making challenge and enjoy lunch prepared using our freshly picked fruits and vegetables from the farm.
Bring your binoculars and water bottle as we head out to experience the rainforest canopy on a series of hanging bridges winding through the old growth forest.
Over 250 species of birds and animals, including the White Hawk, Great Curassow, Rufous Motmot, Howler Monkey, Spider Monkey, Coatimundi, Sloth, and White-collared Peccary are easily seen here.
Further into the Central Highlands, hike through a lush canyon for a refreshing swim under waterfall or take a rainforest walk searching for different species of monkeys and other wildlife.
We arrive at Arenal Volcano Observatory Lodge in the late afternoon. With clear skies, the lodge has incredible views of the steaming volcano.
At night from this safe distance, witness the fiery cascades of lava flowing down the sides of the volcano.
