Rio Celeste National Park Guided Hike - In search of the blue waterfall in Costa Rica!

The Rio Celeste National Park is a beautiful 1.5 hour scenic drive from the Arenal Volcano through rural villages. The Río Celeste National Park is near the Tenorio and Miravalles Volcanoes and is becoming an increasingly popular area to visit in Costa Rica. Once we arrive, we will begin a hike through the dense, lush, tropical rainforest that surrounds the 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 Tenideros, where two rivers come together, you'll be amazed at the celestial turquoise blue water color. This is the perfect place to take photos of this unforgettable tour! We'll finish off with a delicious lunch at a local restaurant and then head back to La Fortuna as you relax in our Desafio vans.

Please note: The Río Celeste waterfall may lose its blue color during rainstorms. Our policy is to advise clients the day of the tour if it is raining in the area and offer the tour for the following day, should clients want to postpone or change to a different tour. No refunds for inclement weather. Swimming is not permitted in the river.

I booked this hike through Desafio, but it was sub contracted to Ecoterra, regardless, it was a superb hike. Our guide, Brandon was a wealth of knowledge and bird calls. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he was patient as we all tried to grab the wildlife pictures. The hike itself is not strenuous and on a great sunny day, the river was so blue. We saw vipers, lizards, monkey and birds. There were plenty of snacks and drinks to go round on the hike. We had lunch at a wonderful little restaurant just down from the hiking entry point. The food was great. Beer and juices all included in the trip price. This trip is definitely recommended for anyone wanting to have a nice hike, great guides, spectacular views and see some native creatures of Costa Rica.
