Arenal Tour - Volcano Hike

The guided tour to the Arenal Volcano base is offered by the guides of Tico Paradise. This tour is offering beetween 3 different trails to explore Arenal Volcano parks, they are Arenal Volcano National Park, El Silencio Reserve, Lava 1968 Reserve, they are all close to each other meaning that the type of forest, and volcano view are quite similar; the idea is that you let your guide know your expectations for this volcano hike, and based on your preferences he will recommend you what trail is best for your interests, making it interactive and allowing visitors to choose what they want to enjoy. Something very important to mention is that hiking to the volcano crater is forbidden by the Costa Rican laws, it is dangerous because of the volcano gases and the topography. Hikes and trails are at the base of the volcano, allowing for beautiful views and an informative history walk that our local guides are willing to share with travellers. The trails are about 2.5 miles each, the hike around Arenal Volcano takes from 2 to 2.3 hours, partly through old lava flow, and the other half inside the rainforest through the enchanting trails at the base of the majestic Arenal Volcano.
