Buenos Aires Waterfall
You’ll feel the strength of the fresh wind channeled through the canyon, waving the ferns along the stone walls even when the leaves of the treetops are motionless. Buenos Aires translates to “Good Winds”.
Aguilar Waterfall
This waterfall is rich in silicon, a mineral that dresses the river stones in a smooth white sheet and upon whose reflection the ultraviolet rays of sun produce this magical fluorescent blue color.
Jícara Thermal Pool
This magnificent spot is named after a very special tree: Jícaro de Danto (Parmentiera varelii). This unique tree is endemic to the Guanacaste and Tilarán mountain ranges, meaning it can’t be found anywhere else in the world!
Danta Thermal Pool
Dantas (Tapirs) are excellent indicators of the health of an ecosystem because of their selective habitat requirements, which includes a continuous source of fresh water.
Pilón Thermal Pool
Take a dip in warm, curative volcanic waters. Float away with the canopy above and refresh your spirit as you glance into the forest.
Rainforest Observatory Platform
Ask your guide to take you and let you see the canopy of the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, if the day is clear you can see Lake of Nicaragua, and the majestic Rincón de la Vieja Volcano.* (Weather Conditions may limit to ascent to the platform; people who suffer vertigo should not climb).
