<h2><strong>What to Expect on the Rincon de la Vieja Volcano Hike</strong></h2><p>Rincon de la Vieja National Park is an off-the-beaten-track park, as there aren’t many tourists visiting the area. However, if you want a great wildlife experience with somewhat extreme hiking involved and are in good physical condition, this is an area for you to explore!</p><h3><strong>A Birdwatcher’s Paradise:</strong></h3><p>You can spot birds such as the yellow-ear toucanets, rusty sparrows, and black-eared wood quail. If you're lucky, the lesser ground cuckoo may make an appearance, too. The hiking trails will lead you to the stunning, 195-foot high La Cangreja waterfall.</p><p>For more info on this Rincon de la Vieja volcano hike and national park tour, speak to one of our expert travel consultants to determine if it would make a good fit for your vacation plan.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2><strong>FAQ:</strong></h2><ul><li><strong>Is Rincon de la Vieja worth it? </strong>If you love hiking and being in nature, then yes - hiking in Rincon de la Vieja is well worth it!</li><li><strong>How many volcanoes are in Rincon de la Vieja? </strong>The Rincon de la Vieja National Park has two volcanoes - the active Rincon de la Vieja Volcano and the dormant Santa Maria Volcano.</li><li><strong>Can you walk up Rincon de la Vieja Volcano? </strong>The Rincon de la Vieja Volcano is active, so walking up is impossible.

<p>As soon as we landed we were in great hands! Very pleased with our excursions and accommodations. Our driver “Marlon Brando” was awesome. Planning and checking in on us throughout our vacation was appreciated. Thanks, Rachel, our trip was SO enjoyable!</p>

Cindy - Rachel

<p>This was the favorite place for the rest of my family. They all enjoyed the beach and boogie boarding here. The beach location was wonderful! It was very family oriented and much quieter and isolated. While here we did a snorkel boating trip... We even saw a howler monkey as we were leaving. The planned excursions and included transportation throughout our trip in Costa Rica made our trip so much easier to relax as we didn’t have to think about the planning for that.</p>

<p>We spent the second half of the trip in Playa Flamingo with an all-inclusive package and it was fantastic. Sunsets on the beach were amazing and we really enjoyed the relaxation! I will never visit Costa Rica without Costa Rican Vacations!</p>
