The Irazu volcano tour can give you the best experience you can ever have in a lifetime. You can get on top of the Irazu volcano and enjoy a half mile hike at different craters. There are luminous lagoons and fumaroles you can enjoy. The volcano sits at an elevation of over 11000 feet. It is the highest volcano that is active in Costa Rica. It is the only volcano that has roads leading to the top.
The best views
You can view from the surrounding cities. Here you will see iconic conical shapes that have smooth angular sides in the distance. At the top, it just looks conical with five deep craters. Some of the craters have vibrant emerald green lagoons. In 1994, the last large eruption happened and now it is in a dormant stage. There is enough evidence that shows that the volcano is still active.
How does your day begin?
Your Irazu volcano tour in Costa Rica will begin when you will be picked up from your hotel. You will then be driven through the picturesque town and then up the higher elevations where you will experience the chillier environment. You will then enter the Irazu Volcano National Park that encompasses almost six thousand acres of upland tropical rainforest and cloud forest. When the foliage starts to disappear, you know that you are getting close to the top.
While at the top
When you arrive at the top during your Irazu volcano tour, the vehicle will park in the paved parking area. Here you will have the chance to use the washrooms and your guide will take you for a hike along the trails around the three craters. The tour should take about half a mile. You will see many things at the volcano and go back to the historical town of Cartago.
