The Extreme Hike

---

Our day starts at 7:00 AM by driving 25 min from Liberia downtown through the small villages of Colorado and Curubande, making one short stop at a “ Soda “ to taste costa rican coffe, bread and fruits to then continue for 10 more minutes to our first waterfall: La Cangreja Waterfall 

Located in Rincon de la Vieja National Park.This is a four-hour, 5.1km (each direction) hike that leads where falls drop 50m from a cliff into a small swimmable lagoon. 

After our first 5 hours hike we continue to La Oropendola Waterfall. Once there we’ll be ready for a refreshing swim in the Oropendula Waterfall. The trail is 500 meters singletrack so together 1 Km. The Oropendula Waterfall spills an impressive 82 feet (25 meters) down to a bright turquoise pool in the picturesque lush canyon of the Rio Blanco (White River). 

After one hour at La Oropendola Waterfall we will continue to La Leona Waterfall. The waterfall is well hidden away on the outskirts of Rincon de la Vieja Volcano.The trail is 1.7 Miles (2.7 Kilometers) singletrack so together it is 6 km.

There are some climbing to do in elevation and some caves to go across. Later to reach the waterfall we would have to swim 25 meters.

Once we finish with La Leona Waterfall we will continue to Curubande downtown to have a typical Costa Rican Lunch.
