Arenal Volcano National Park

Arenal Volcano National Park protects Costa Rica's most iconic active volcano, Arenal, a perfectly conical 1,670-meter stratovolcano that erupted continuously from 1968 to 2010 and remains sporadically active. The park's cloud forest and surrounding thermal hot springs — fed by the volcanic heat — make the area one of Costa Rica's top ecotourism destinations. La Fortuna town at the volcano's base offers zip-lining, whitewater rafting on the Balsa River, waterfall hiking, and hanging bridge canopy walks.
