The Irazú volcano is on of our favorite places to visit in Costa Rica!
Not only it is close to our home in Turrialba, but the scenery on the ride up through the rolling farmlands is amazing!
It was first created as a National Park on August 9th 1955 and to date is one of the most visited National Parks in Costa Rica!
This complexe stratovolcano is name after the indigenous culture that used to live at its flanks.
Home to 5 craters, 3 of which are visible!
When driving up to the Irazú volcano, you will head through some of the most picturesque plantations in the Cartago area! Here people most commonly farm: chayote, potatoes, onions & chammomile.
An excellent day trip whether you are staying in San José, Cartago or Turrialba. We recommend arriving before 10am, due to the height of this volcano, the clouds tend to roll in quickly!
There is a small coffee / gift shop that you can visit while up there and the parking area is
considered safe. A great trip for families.
One of Costa Rica's attractions that comes highly recommend by most guests and clients!
