[2025 La Fortuna Attraction] Travel Guide for Arenal Volcano National Park (Updated Mar)

Hidden deep into the rainforest is a luxury gem that should be experienced by anyone who's in need of a mental detox. @thespringscostarica has simply blown me away! They offer exceptional service and unparralled views of the Arenal volcano. I mean, as soon as you walk into the lobby, the volcano is ALL up in your face. It gives the illusion as if you can almost touch it. It's stunning and mesmerizing beyond words! ⠀⠀⠀ The resort is home to 28 hot springs of varying temps and boasts a whole host of activities at their Club Rio. From river tubing, to horseback riding through a river, to rock climbing to wildlife sanctuaries; the property is very much self-contained. ⠀⠀⠀ I hope you enjoy this new series of posts as much as I enjoyed creating them. And if you're deciding on accommodation for Costa Rica, @thespringscostarica has my vote! 

The Arenal volcano is one of Costa Rica’s many natural wonders and a visit to the county is not complete without setting foot in its natural park. The views across the volcanic landscape from different vantage points is phenomenal and the walls that take you through rainforest across Lava fields and around crater lakes are an experience not to be missed. #celebrateit #volcano #costarica

Costa Rica’s Arenal national park provides you with some dramatic scenery and wonderful walking opportunities. The 1968 trial, named after the year of a large eruption wraps around the imposing volcano following the rainforest as you witness the remnants of the lava flow that devastated this area. Not only do you witness panoramic views of the volcano but you also get to view the beautiful crater lake that again provides you with that perfect photo opportunity #costarica #volcano

A magnificent view! A beautiful mountain that reminds me of Mt. Fuji.
