We are reminded of Earth's origins as we explore the Arenal Volcano and surrounding areas.
The Arenal Volcano has an almost perfect cone, which soars 1,633 meters above sea level. The crater is 140 meters deep formed over an ancient caldera.
From time to time loud explosions are heard and a mushroom cloud of gray, brown, orange or blue smoke billows out of the top.
After an exciting day touring the rainforest and lower slopes of Arenal Volcano, we relax in the nearby hot-springs locally owned .
There are five naturally-fed pools of different temperatures, one of which is always the perfect temperature for relaxing as the sun sets.
Dinner is a wonderful home-style meal served in a rustic wooden ranch. At the Ecocenter, witness Costa Rica's infamous Red Poison Arrow Frog along with an amazing diversity of mammals and reptiles, including sloths, marsupials, agoutis, coatis, caimans, and lizards in a natural tropical forest preserve.
Traveling past lush farmlands and verdant forests, we reach the Cloud Forest in San Ramon, a small farming community in the heart of the Costa Rican Central Highlands.
From our tranquil hacienda featuring twenty cozy chalets with private baths and plenty of charm, we explore the adjacent Cloud Forest on trails that wind through lush tropical cloud-forests up to 6,000 feet.
Listen for the calls of Howler monkeys and watch for Spider monkeys and capuchins. After dark, our guide takes us on a night walk in the forest to observe the variety of nocturnal insects and wildlife.
