Rincon de la Vieja - Hot Springs & Nature Hike at Santa Maria

Road trip from Liberia observing the mountain range, nature, and the scenery of Guanacaste. What a way to start the experience! After enjoying the landscape for 25 km, you will reach Santa Maria Sector, which belongs to Rincon de la Vieja National Park. We will start the tour with a lot of culture and knowledge at the Casona of the old Hacienda Santa Maria and then initiate our hike doing wildlife observation and learning from nature and the forest. At the end of the trail, we will find the magical blue natural pools with thermal mineral water where you can go in and disconnect mind and body, relaxing and breathing the essences of the volcano. On the way back we will visit the Morpho Waterfall and the Enchanted Forrest Waterfall, where you can rest your feet and dip into fresh water, or just enjoy the peaceful loving forest and river around you. This is a medium-scale hike, approximately 6kms round trip, 80% of flat terrain throughout the trail, making it more accessible and enjoyable
