Itinerary at a Glance
DAY 8: MONTEVERDE – PN TENORIO – GUANACASTE (323 km- 5 hs 41 min)
In the morning, early departure to the Tenorio Volcano National Park, established in 1997 to protect the extensions of primary and dry tropical forest. Trails are still being created within the park, and it is considered one of the new destinations ahead for nature and adventure lovers. Those of us who are ready for a moderately challenging 6 km hike will start at Rio Celeste, notable for its striking turquoise blue color. As we hike the trail, we'll keep an eye out for monkeys, sloths, tropical birds, and other wildlife, while enjoying views of hot springs and a lagoon. The winding path follows the banks of the river, taking us upstream as the vivid blue color of the water deepens until it reaches a photogenic waterfall. Later, we continue along the route to the Guanacaste peninsula where we will stay the rest of the

We follow well-marked trails, amid dense, fog-shrouded, dripping foliage - hopefully we will meet the iconic bird, the brilliantly feathered
resplendent quetzal (January - July). Other striking species include the emerald toucan and we should also be able to spot white-faced and howler monkeys.
